Have either of you tried different wire materials or construction methodologies in various audio wiring or interconnect applications?
Maybe you just know there is no technical possibility of them sounding different?
I believe I paid more for my copper OCC magnet wire than my silver coax so I can't see any reason for me to have an observer bias there. I'm an EE but DIY audio is just a hobby. I don't have a great deal of concern to prove why something sounds better.
This application may be very insensitive to material choice but I chose silver in a similar application because I thought silver oxide would behave better over the long term than copper oxide.
