I've have a couple pair, Kimber and aural thrills. It's nice to have a variety while swapping gear. I usually like them between a source and my pre i.e. dac or CDP. I wouldn't build out a whaole system out of them all at once without experimenting first. That goes with anything in the music chain.2-channel: Modwright KWI-200 Integrated, Dynaudio C1-II Signatures

Like others have said, one pair of silver somewhere in the chain will give some benefit, but all silver IC's everywhere....may be disappointing.HT SYSTEM-

I have a couple Aural Thrills both balanced and RCA solid silver cables. I believe it it better to strategically place silver interconnects. Silver won't sound good in between all pieces of gear (depending on the IC brand you are using of course). Placed in the right spot, and as you said not building a whole system out of silver they can be very good IC's.
Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
"I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion."
My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....
