Heya,
 
Chemically, they're so similar that you shouldn't worry about it unless you have a grant and want to show a control between materials during application to about the 1,000,000th significant digit.
 
Silver... copper... why not gold? All do the same thing for this purpose. Each is just a different "precious" metal that conducts electricity nicely. Nearly the same pretty much.
 
Sonically, I've never heard a difference between silver and copper. And I have both.
 
Some people think they hear more of... [insert something]. I've even heard someone say they got more sound stage. Completely wild big fish stories.
 
I'd spend your money on better phones, and more music.
 
Very best,

I am getting a hybrid (copper and spc I believe) from Chris_Himself I think. I wasnt sure which one of them I should go for.
 
I have the JH16s..pretty much maxed out on the IEM front, all my music have been ripped to FLAC as well.
