...wire (see link below under "components", next to the picture of the crossover), and Audio Note is well known to use silver in their equipment (speakers and electronics). I also do not agree that it has to be all silver or none. In fact, I tried Audio Note RCA jacks in my amps and took them out because I did not like the sound. I switched to the OFC Vampire jacks.I certainly agree that all of these things have different sonic signatures, and it can come down to just the metal used. I found the Oyaide wall outlets sound radically different between the two types I tried, the GX (gold) and XXX (palladium). I certainly think that improvement is in the eye of the beholder, and have also sold off a supposed great silver interconnect and switched to copper. That does not mean that there is not a silver interconnect out there that would be better for my system, though.
I agree with you..."improved" vs. "changed/different"...that is in the ears of the listener.

BTW; "signal purity"...look at all that crossover stuff, and the rest of the chain...the signal goes through all sorts of substrates...
