I pretty much agree with Thorman. I've tried all copper, all silver and currently run a mix of both.
Whether or not an all silver configuration will sound too bright depends on your equipment, the cables you choose and your ears. It's difficult to predict and takes experimentation to find out.
For a few years I tried a mish mash of different cables with unsatisfactory results. What helped me zero in on a sound I liked was doing a lot of research, then buying a complete set of cables from one manufacturer, then doing further tweaking. Buying all from one manufacturer may not be necessary, but I feel I chose a company that fit my taste well and it allowed me to create a "base" from which I could further refine.
Since arriving at my current set up over a year ago I've auditioned other cables, but this configuration endures.
