It is not unusual at all for SS folks to prefer gold plated connectors, so for others with SS systems your observations are likely spot-on. Gold seems to have a tube-like burnished quality to it that can tip the system more towards "musicality" in a system that may be otherwise lean towards the analytical side of neutral. For tube guys, the gold platings might be a bit too much. This all gets even more complicated if you introduce silver wire or connectors on the IC's, or cabling with solid teflon dielectrics. In then end, your ears are the best judge for your system, and nobody can prove otherwise!
