Connectors

No connector is the best sounding. No connector, as in bare wire. Unplated copper spades would be my next choice, but you have to occasionally polish them for best sound. If you like the sound of silver, then bare silver spades. They say the oxidation on silver is just as conductive as the silver itself, but something tells me they would benefit from polishing as well.

Oxidation on silver is a very predominant misconception. Oxidation is just as conductive, however silver oxide forms in only a high pressure environment, and what we actually experience on silver is tarnish, which is silver sulphide and not as conductive. So Hifiharv, your gut is very correct!

In my experience, connector differences can easily be heard<<

Not by you or anybody else reading this.

Sorry.

I agree with most here that you won't perceive any audible difference, I have not, so go with the Furutech 201g, once fitted you will stop thinking about them.
