Only two statements are true IMO. Dirty connector does imped sound. Silver vs copper does sound different and I do not know why. Silver is more harsh sounding, but can wake up a soft sounding amp/speaker.
Follow Ups:
Silver even more than copper must be cryogenically treated to sound it's best. That's why so many high end cable manufacturers employ cryogenic treatment during the manufacturing process. A non cryo'd cable simply can't compete in the high end marketplace. And the conductors must be in the correct direction for optimum results.

Thank you for taking on these luddites. Anyone not sitting on their ears can confirm that the casting method has influence on the sound and that silver and copper sound different. Anyone who knows a bit of hysics knows that random orientation and allignment of molecules create different electric fields around cables. And finally: directionality is a consequence of both and very real, even if you replace a fuse by a copper bar.
The absoluteness and vehemence with which people advocate preconceived notions rather than empirically establishing facts never ceases to amaze.
