Is nickel any good 4 speaker cable or power cords?

There is a brand call Canary Audio they use nickel plated copper for their power cord. I heard that nickel is no good for audio because of their low conductivity, but don't they carry more current than silver or copper? Is nickel a good material for audio stuffs? I am not quite familiar with metallugy but info would be appreciated =) Thanks

I also read it on the Audio Asylum forum that there is actually a Canadian brand doing nickel cords exclusively. One or two said that heard it and it was amazing? One even said he wants to look for raw materials to make one himself....

I found out that the dealer is call... something LOYALTY MUSIC? The owner makes his own kind of nickel cables and they sound really really good (from many people I heard) but the retail value is just too high... $4000 / 8' PR !!!!!!

LOYALTY MUSIC purchased nickel cables from Canary Audio in a bundle forms. I can guarantee you that Loyalty's nickel pc is the same as Canary's. The only difference between the two is Canary's much cheaper cause Loyalty is way over priced.

Just wondering if anyone has recently had experience with the nickel power cables. I am looking at purchasing one for my power amplifier. Your thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks,
