Silver interconnects & copper speaker cable O.K. ?

I use silver IC's and copper speaker cables and am happy with the results. I at some point will try silver speaker cables, but need to save up enough $$$ to do so. I want to upgrade my CDP first though.

Regards,

WHy would you question that when you are probably using Copper wire inside your speakers and the Contacts are Copper.

Mixing the 2 in a Cable design I have read introduces grain,but everything in the chain matters. It is finding that magical combo which makes things intresting for me.

I am trying to find the most cost effective combo that makes my system sound it's best.

Some Copper that I am using has the traits of good SIlver so it has alot to do with the design rather than the type in my reading and hearing.

Another thing that I am intrested in is the mixing of dissimilar metals for the connectors. So there are always questions and hard to find answers.

I'd rather experiment buying wires and trying things instead of paying for a finished product that might or might not work. Saves $$ and I learn alot.

Good metallurgical copper and silver should both sound good. However, I prefer silver for IC's.

If the metals are not fabricated and processed right, either one can sound bad.

As Sean wisely states, use what sounds best in your system.

Like Mattybumpkin, I use silver interconnects and copper speaker cable. I also use a silver power cord. Up until recently, I also used silver speaker cable, but found that I need copper somewhere in my system to keep the sound from crossing the line into an area I am no longer happy with.

While it is true that the ideal situation would be use the same wire from one end of a system to the other, it's much more complicated and difficult than most of us realize. Think about it, ever resistor, wire, coil, connector, jack, etc. would have to be the same. That would exclude all but a lunatic. Still, most of us have seen the benefits of maximizing the cabling of our systems, which is not so hard.

Was thinking that it might be beneficial to use Silver on the topend and Copper tfor the bottom in Bi-Wiring combo.

Any thoughts?
