Pure Silver should be fine, you don't need to pay $50 extra for 1% Gold, unless it's only to feel special.

a bit of a gamble without reviews. I think Toxic cables  has a similar cable which received positive reviews.
 
I tried a few copper cables, silver plated copper, silver, gold, and silver with small % of gold in it. to me, the latter wins, hands down.
 
if you're prepared to spend $200 on a headphone cable, might as well rise it to $250 and get something that will positively make a difference. ymmv

Lenni likes Piccolino cables.

 Crystal Cables is one of the few genuine audiophile products. it's the real deal. and the good thing about it is their entry-level cable will be almost as good as their top-ends. worth every cent.

You mean, for Shure iem silver with copper is better than silver with gold, right?

Silver has the highest electrical conductivity of all metals, Gold doesn't, crystal certainly doesn't.
 
 
They don't use crystal cables in space stations, fibre optics are nice and fast though.

They mean Crystal Cable, as in the company, not a cable made of Crystals, if that's what you was thinking.

I mean cables in general - silver with small % of gold work best.

that's correct. gold on its own is not as good as silver. not sure what you mean what crystal doesn't.

no they don't. because CC was built for audio components - not space communications. get it?

Alright.  So which Silver cable with a small % of Gold did you audition?
