You're using silly 'objective' standards here... true audiophiles know
that science can't measure what we hear. It may measure like copper
but if it *sounds* like silver, that's what matters. You can't prove
it doesn't!


But I can prove that the cable is actually copper not the advertised
silver.

I hope you are posting in jest.


Since you said your cables are several years old, is it not possible that
the manufacturer has changed the technology used in the cable and is
currently actually using silver? Would it not make sense to find out before
slandering them on usenet?

The cable was described as solid silver when I purchased one, the
actual item was copper. If they have changed their technology then it
is only to meet the claims they have always made.

Really how can they advertise solid silver and then sell copper? It is
no accident to strip a coax cable and solder copper flex cord onto the
copper core of the coax that you just stripped and not notice that the
cable is copper.

I am sorry, I thought you were responding to another post that mentioned the
silver claim, and said you owned the cables, having bought them several
years ago. It was not clear that they were making the "silver" claim at the
time you bought them. I agree that if they are claiming one construction
and giving you another, they are fraudulent.
