Speaker Wire (Silver vs. Copper) (BD-Design)

Hello,

I'm in thre process of building a compact ref system using 200's loaded w/ Fostex FE206E (aspiring to AER drivers someday :-)

I've been going back and forth about what type of speaker wire I should use to drive the horns and I'm thinking of constructing a pair from 99.99% solid core silver w/ Teflon insulation (it's available in 22 AWG to 30 AWG).

Before I make the investment, has anyone had positive or negative experience using silver wire in an Oris setup. Would Copper (perhaps CCC) be a better match for this application?

Does anyone have any suggestions as to cable geometry? Twisting vs. brading...

I'll be using a Korneff SE45 to drive the horns.

Thanks in advance for any insight.

Cheers,
Hat
