Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: Agree

Donald, instead of a subjective listen, are there technical inaccuracies in what Jack is saying?

I thought the advantage with silver, apart from it's lower resistance and the fact that silver oxide is a much better conductor than copper oxide, was it's ability to react to flux changes better than copper?

Why that would be true, I have no idea.

Is Jack totally off base?

TK, I would appreciate your input as well.

Edit to add, Wouldn't this be easy to test?

A Sawsall with a magnet attached to the blade. A coil of silver and a identical coil of copper. A scope (or volt meter).

The one that outputs more voltage is responding to the flux lines better. Right?
