Solid Silver rca's for tube amps

Are there any tube amp users out there...that have found solid silver wire rca's to be of benefit to the sound of your system?
I want to try them, but there pricey.
I'm thinking about Quicksilvers interconnects as they're silver and I think at 100.00 per meter set,they would be a good deal compared to others.

Thanks in advance.

Solid Silver works great for my All Tube gear..I use DH Labs..Revelations...Depending on what tubes I was rolling at different times,I also enjoy ..Audience IC's which are copper wire...

I use the PS Audio Transcendent silver solid core I.C. and Slinky Links silver speaker cable with my Coincident tube amp and linestage. The sound is exceptionally open,transparent and with a slight overall warmth and full texured tonality.

Seasons greetings Mcgarick.I have MAC"Silver Braided"I/C's between my Marantz DV-7001 & Yaqin Tube Buffer & the Buffer to Yaqin Tube Integrated Amp.The other day I swapped in some Audioquest Diamondback copper I/C's just to see how it would sound.ARGHHH,terrible.Even though the cables have several hundred hours on them & I let then cook in all day before listening it was like I put a blanket over the speakers.The MAC cables are Pure Silver & can be had through the Auction section at VERY resonable prices.
