Um, I don't think that's right. Copper and silver are two different metals with different chemical and physical properties. Of course they are going to make a difference "electrically" due to differences in levels of condunctance. Maybe put a few different cable types on the bench to test the flow. The difference in signal transfer may only seem minimal, but how many cycles are transmitted in an audio signal? But it's not all about materials either, construction of the cable is a big factor also. What's the point in having the most advanced cable when it's held together by pissweak solder?

The guys at Black Rhodium do power cable off the reel. Silver plated and 13 or 25 amp variations. It would just be a matter of your techie putting the french plugs on it.
