Copper is more forgiving in sound than silver. But the best silver cables can reveal a lot more details than the most expensive coppercables.
Really? If I lived in your area I would be more than happy bring along my Jorma Statement speakers cables to a-b compare to any silver speaker cables you care to throw at them.

I will ask the distributer ( in the Netherlands) of Jorma to bring a few cables with him. I do business with him and I know him for a long time. He will visit me in 2015. I will email about the outcome. I have no experience with these cables.

Bol, I think you would be impressed by the Jorma cables. I have owned Origo, Prime & now Statement. Going from Origo to Prime was a big step up in sound, but I think the biggest jump was moving up to the Statement sc's. Straight out of the box the resolution was amazing & in terms of the sound stage, a whole vista opened up.
