Pure Silver Wire
If silver is so good to use why do we not see solid silver speaker cables? Price is not that high- 10ga diameter pure silver 6ft is just under $300. That makes a pair of speaker cables about $1,100 for material. I see the price of some of these cables on the market and $1,100 is a fraction of their asking price.
@jaygilb So, what Bose system do you listen to? You’d be much better off at ASR as that’s where people go when they can’t hear. |

So, you have .999 AG wire that then is soldered to some style of CU connector. The 'high silver' solder has copper and zinc in it. Let's not forget all of your equipment has copper wire and solder of all types inside. SO.....pure AG wire is more of a fun thingy than a purity thingy in the end...just say'n |
Strictly, digital 1s and 0s are interpreted from analog waveforms approximating square waves. Picking the leading edge is important from a jitter perspective. Approximating a square wave requires lots of higher frequencies in the signal, and that's in addition to the high base frequency - 1.4-Mbits per second for two channel CD quality. |
@richardbrand while what you say is correct, it doesn't cause silver to preferentially transit one frequency over another. |
