Difference in sound between copper and silver digital cables?


Is there a difference in sound between copper and silver digital cables, or purely in the implementation?

  On the other hand I haven’t been paying much attention the past 30 years or so. Especially since I stopped using interconnects and digital cables completely about 3 years ago.

Well how is it getting there? Ozmosis??? or is "IT", getting there? ;)
I mean, do you hum to yourself? You gotta' great voice, and that does it for you? Come on how's it gettin' in your head...

If it's like me, I pound it in as often as possible. Kinda works..High THD though...

I swear, my mind read that as, high THC though. Battery powered headphones is the answer. No more pencils, no more books, no more teacher’s dirty looks!
It’s been a while and I just re-read this thread, probably dead now.
However I have recently done some wiring in my amplifier and found this thread about helix wire geometry. Yes, I used the helix wire geometry with Cat 5E wire.

I used to make Curious Cables in Australia, and without giving too much away (or maybe I am?) annealed silver in PTFE tubing with quite a bit of space for air, and USAF wire used in fighter planes was purchased through a wire broker. There is a woven pair of grounds that go around the signal wires, not dissimilar to the same concept as the helix.

There may be others that can beat Curious Cables USB, but are there any that can for the price?
Silver offers much more crispness and better clarity especially copper by its self, because most manufacturers use silver plated copper, some do all pure silver wire cables. However silver will seem to promote midrange and high frequency with much more ease, and be tighter in bass but definitely not lacking in low frequency production.
