VR4 HSE Silver Jumpers?


I was reading throught the Von Schweikert VR4 manual this weekend and noticed they recommend silver speaker wire to tighten the bass. I'm using MAS Signature Hybrid speaker wire which is a single strand of silver wire with stranded OFC copper. I presently run my speaker wire to the M/T enclosure, and then run a jumper to the woofer. I know VSA suggests bi-wiring, but in my set-up this is not feasible. I actually tried bi-wiring with Canare 4S11 at one point, and compared it to using jumpers, and I didn't discern a difference.

Anyway, the question...

Does anyone think changing my jumpers from an all-copper quad geometry wire to a solid core silver wire would make a difference in the bass response?

Didactically, here is the same question which you still will not answer. You preach the dogma of "true to the original". How is this possible when your reference standard is a $100- pair of Shure earbuds, that have three noticeable frequency peaks, according to Siegfried Linkwitz himself? If your reference earbuds' output alters the frequency response of the input, how can this possibly be "true to the original"
