Clamped OCC copper!
From your list, probably silver. I believe oxidized silver is as good a conductor. I’ve seen copper connectors. Not sure how they hold up with all the air. Gold is probably okay for longevity but it’s not a great conductor. Sounds warm. Rhodium is great for detail but can sound a little hard and chrome-like.
I'm on rhodium clamped and monster cables, I have a lot of details but my new preamp is totally balanced now so I was wondering if I could improve sound by changing wires 
Definitely not Rhodium as it’s a far inferior conductor to the others. Silver is best since oxidation doesn’t inhibit its conductivity for all practical purposes.
