Yeah, the differences is not worth $500-600 price tag. Works is done by me so it costed material and self labor, and I only simply answer his question. Beside, not all silver cables ar wthe same, most of the time people is confused of silver plated copper for being silver. They are very different, you can simply do some researches on electric conductivity, capacitance ....etc...two different layers of conducive material is worse than 1 single pure material to transmit the analog signals, the frequencies need to be pure and efficient to conduct the best of it.
The way I see it ? You have water flow 1000 gallons per hour, over 10 hours you have 10,000 gallons. To restrict your pipeline to be deficient down to 5%, you will loose 500 gallons over the course of 10 hours.
Now, take that into analog signals and frequency, we are approaching the days and age of 16/44.1 to be the standard (the least of cd quality) of high-res audio....these better engineered devices are there for this purposes. Now, to have 5% deficiency or 44,100 hz per second would equal to 2,205 Hz per second loss....and that is only 1 signal (bass for example), now...how many different signals were composed onto the sound track ? 10-20 ? Multiply that...you would lose 22,050 hz per second over the song with 10 instruments composed on. Now give it 180 seconds which is 3 minutes, you will lose 3,969,000 Hz....that is not much ?
I hear some people asked me, so does the studio which were used to compose and engineer the sound track matter ? What cables do they use ? How about your sources, gears, solders, components ? My answer to all of those above ? Deficiency is deficiency, it doesn't matter what come before the deficiency, but the end result is that you are getting 5% deficiency.
The studio can use very bad cables and equipments....normally they don't, and composed 100% of the sound track they think you want to hear....when it come to you, and say you spend all the money you could on the gears that would "reproduce" 100% of this track....by going through your bad copper cables, you now will only hear 95% of it
What we have here is the word "reproduction" deficiency always count period.
Again, to have the cables to cost that much ? It is snake oil, I improve my stuff with basic electrical knowledges, and I enjoy the result that it brings. On some special track of cd quality 16/44.1 I can specifically point out between a stock headphones to the silver recabled headphones (the missing sounds). I don't have bat ears or sonar receptions, what I hear, you can also hear.
Also note that, toe ultimately reproduce the track as it was meant to be ? 5% could cost a lot of money...in this hobby...it is
I can help you with that if you want to and not having to cut off an arm or a leg. Anybody who has basic soldering skills can help you, I will refer you to the person who sell the cables quality of silver that I had tested and witnessed the differences as well. If money is no objective and you love fancy coloring, jackets, brand on your cables, then there will be plenty.
