Hi Guys,
Just bought myself some 0.5mm OD /24AWG/ .999 silver wire for interconnects between my DAC and AMP.
I read a lot about cables, blah blah, these days. So i decided to connect my ODAC and Moscode AMP with 1 x 24AWg wire diy cable. As Gizmo said somewhere / the guy that designed my amp/ there is no big difference if cheap RCA or expensive is used, the wire matters much more. SO at the moment or ever, i will not buy expensive pure silver RCAs or 20Euro silver coated RCA connectors.
I do not want to discuss the above said.
What i wonder and my BIG question is:
1.How the heck these super duper expensive 99.99999999... silver plated or pure silver doesn't tarnish? Cause i live near seaside and everything tarnishes. whats the gimmick there?
2.I have many hobbies and i found these silver plating kits. A friend has the gold plating one. So what if i make my own copper RCA plugs on my mini lathe and plate them? or just plate some cheaper connectors. So i end with better stuff on the cheap.
Plus i could silverplate all the RCAs on my preamp and amp?
-Plug N' Plate® Silver Plating Kit
-Silversmith 4 oz
What do you think /know/? ? i could not find info on that
