Silver v Copper wire phono cable

Getting ready to order new tonearm, have option for either copper or silver continuous phono cable from cartridge to preamp.  without the  opportunity to compare personally, I would like to hear how others would chose....my system is shown on this site...thank you

What about copper plated silver?🤣

 

Either way, litz wiring is a plus. I don't care for working with it though.

For reasons I cannot cite, I don’t think silver can be plated w copper. In any case, I get the joke.
