Rhodium vs Gold AC connectors

Hi dear fellows.Does anybody tried these type of connectors in power cords?In my case I don`t know which could be the differences in sound performances between them.I heard that rhodium connectors have more extended hights frequences , more airy and fluid than gold connectors, but also that they can produce a non-lively sound, with too much control.Regarding Gold connectors I red that they produce a warmer sound, specially in the mids, but with not so much detail as rhodium.Is it true?I will appreciate your comments to make a proper decision.Thanks in advance!Raf

melb, Michaelzay is a well seasoned audiophile I respect, he know's more about outlet's and connector's than the both of us do!, I have garnished alot of info from him, he helped me!, If I were you, ask him question's about all of this, he is my teacher, he has not been wrong thus far, though on connector's, pending on the componet sound, not tube or solid state, he has mixed to good success.

Audiolabyrinth, I bought some IeGO Silver and Gold AC plugs that I am on last phase of breaking period. I will post the results/ comparison to Furutech soon. So far, I just tested Silver AC plugs and they are wonderful, having best features of Rhodium & Gold ac plugs. My AC outlets are TESLA Plex SE and I very happy using them. If I could find any AC outlet made of Silver plat over Copper, I will certainly go for it.

BTw, I appreciate your kind words ...

cheers,

Melbguy1, don't let anyone bother you. No one trusts anyone else's opinions here and should not. Perhaps over time you can find your opinions correspond with someone here. But in reality it is not good science to trust anyone.
