I recently learned that it may be a bad idea to plug, say, a gold plated 1/4" male TRS into an audio interface and leave it there since the female connector inside the interface is probably nickel plated rather than gold and the contact between the two will cause galvanic corrosion of the nickel-plated connector.
So, iiuc, this means that gold plating of connectors is not desirable in itself. Mating parts should preferably have the same metal plating.
Diuc?
