For that money it might not be necessary to bother with your iron.

Well  took me a little time to get the right synergy with these cables. I am using them on my Squeeezbox. Viola, nice detail ,smooth ,good bass. Great if you have copper cables on your  pre and amp and looking to get a little more detail in your upper freq. Not harsh sounding.Guitars had the twang I like and percussion was quick and tight.
  Good cable ,well made for 39.00. It is a little fragile not advised to over  bend because it has no insulation around the solid core silver wire. Comes with Switchcraft RCA plugs which I like because it is nice and snug . My next test is on my cd player .We will see how they compare to Audioquest Sky's.

Thats it , enjoy

Soundsilver is located in Long Island NY ,see linky above. Stewart was great to deal with and I got my cables in 1 day. Probably because I am in NY.

I just wanted to thank Evan for both purchasing the interconnects and posting his favorable review.
I  also want to add some clarification regarding the copper ground.
The wire is actually magnet wire which has an enamel or sometimes polyurethane coating which acts as the insulator, so it is quite durable. Also, if the Switchcraft connectors are a problem I can probably swap them out for Neutriks for a few extra dollars. However, I feel the Switchcraft has considerably better construction and sound. Thanks again Evan you are truly a good man.
Regards to all Stewart @ Soundsilver

Comparing a $39 ic with a >$1000 ic...should be interesting.

BTW, which version of the AudioQuest Sky ic do you have?

Currently I am only offering the interconnects as I am just getting Soundsilver off the ground. I am currently in the process of developing a website (on my own, should be fun). I just wanted to offer people a viable way of getting good sound without paying a fortune for the peripherals. More money for music.  Thanks for the inquiry.

What's with these cable guys up in Long Island? They all seem to offer very high value for the dollar. First is Signal Cable, run by Frank Dai, and now Soundsilver by Stewart.

Kudos, hope your company does well. At least you are not gouging the uninformed audiophile mass!  :duh:

Well, sometimes I look after I leap, and here's one of 'em ;)

After I purchased a set of Soundsilver Dual Silver cables, I decided to search AC to see what I could find. I think these are of a different construction than the cables Evan bought. Dual runs of Silver in Teflon, without the copper ground wire, though I could be wrong.
I like the concept behind them and the price was right ($57/ 4ft pair). I'll be posting my findings after I get them.

I purchased some Soundsilver cables about three months ago and I am a very satisfied customer. Highly recommended! Soundsilver and Bluejeans are my favorite cable manufacturers.

Well I received my cables today. So turn around, service, was very respectable. I don't think I'll get a chance to listen tonight, but I'll plug 'em in, and hopefully tomorrow night and over the weekend I'll give 'em a good listen.
