gold plating has more to do with transfer of potentials then it does corrosion inheritance, because if it was a matter of corrosion then much cheaper materials would be used like chrome or  nickel   

one hundred years of audio design and techniques cant be wrong, right? but they could be wrong because they havent met you fine bunch of prestigious science folk 

why do you think gold is only on connectors not integrated into wires and boards exc.

but you guys know best and all the big businesses of the audio industry are trying to rip us off, i should have seen it coming when i spent all that money on that microphone and connectors......i could have saved hundreds and just used the one that came with my computer the sound is just the same, and all those musicians  should have know... its all the same in the end....

Nickel is used both as a surface finish on many 1/4" phone plugs and as a barrier layer for gold plating.

If you had researched you would have answered your own question and corrected your misconception.

Gold over electroless nickel is a common PCB surface finish for equipment that has to last.  Soldermask over bare copper and tin, or silver finishes are common on low cost consumer goods that don't have a long life expectancy.

$579. for a 6' HDMI cable is very strong evidence that at least some in the industry try to fleece the gullible.

Correction, Mark. In the CNC field, all pcb's use just solder resist over copper ; these are industrial boards' I have designed many boards and sell the products; never use gold plating for traces.
