In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud — 'The mud should sound perfectly awful, but it doesn't,' notes the experiment creator

Who knew listening to a banana sounded so good?

Gold does help for better contacts, though.

(I once wire wrapped telecommunication cabling to special plugs, these plugs were coated with gold at the contacts. Because gold doesn't corrode. Effect: You have a more reliable contact. Not an Effect: Better sound quality)
