  SoundStage! Equipment Review - Silversmith Audio Silver Interconnects and Speaker Cables (8/2002)
Silversmith Audio does specify a silver-plated barrel within the Bullet Plug, as opposed to a plastic one, to reportedly improve upon the connector’s radio-frequency-rejecting properties.
Installation of the Silversmith Silver speaker cables, with their pliable foil spade connectors, requires some thought with regard to connection and routing, but the interconnects are as supple and easy to use as any I've encountered.
Silversmith Audio's Silver interconnects and speaker cables are not showy and thus not easy to categorize in their own right.

  Silversmith - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Silversmiths not only work with silver, but with other metals as well to make jewellery and other items.
Silversmiths specialise in the use of silver though, and it is the principal metal with which they work.
There are silversmiths who specialize in forging and forming, producing pieces that are typically made from a single piece of metal that has been hammered or formed under the pressure of percussion or squeezing from a press, such as a hydraulic press.

 Silversmith
Silversmith Audio's Silver speaker cables reflect their design philosophy in its purest form: A single conductor per polarity - an ultra-thin ribbon of pure silver, seamless from end to end, without traditional solder or crimp connectors, and encased in an extremely thin wall Teflon™ tube system designed to maintain a primarily air dielectric
Like all Silversmith Audio cables, it utilizes solid-core ribbon/air dielectric construction, but it also uses a true three conductor plus floating shield geometry instead of the two conductor and signal carrying shield geometry of other Lemo-connector cables.
The Palladium interconnects share the same shielded, ultra-thin ribbon/air-dielectric geometry as the Silver line, but instead of silver, use a state-of-the-art palladium alloy that does not oxidize and has skin-effect related properties representing up to a 25 fold improvement over those of gold, silver, copper, and aluminum.

 An 18th-Century Trades Sampler
Often in the 18th century, a silversmith would call himself a goldsmith for the added prestige.
The "smith" part of the name indicates that hammers are used for shaping the silver (the word smith derives from the word smite, meaning to hit or strike).
Silversmiths frequently offered to pay citizens for their old silver goods In addition, there was always competition among silversmiths whose customers were limited to the small group of colonists who could afford silver items.

All Silversmith cables use exactly the same geometry, and are designed with the goal of minimizing or eliminating these deleterious effects.

 Stereophile: Silversmith Audio Silver interconnect & speaker cables
Overall, the Silvers reminded me a great deal of the excellent Empirical Audio cables I auditioned in the April issue, though the Silversmiths were a little more of everything—more dynamic, more overt in their resolution of detail, more vivid in their reproduction of tonal colors and textures.
I also compared the Silversmiths to two of my reference cables, the Nirvana SX-Ltds and Nordost Valhallas—pretty rarified company, but where the Silversmiths belong.
The flip side was that the Silversmiths were more dynamic than the Nirvanas, especially on large transients and at the f to ffff end of the spectrum.
