A few solder joints won't make a big difference, but do an entire system like a console with it and yes, it sounds smoother and more detailed, just like what a silver cable can do. I've been using it since the 80's. There are many exotic solder formulas out there these days, some containing gold content as well. No, there are no published studies using any testing methods I've ever heard of as it's pretty hard to qualify quality of sound. Some high end test gear is made with it and it's used in some aerospace applications, there may be studies in that field but you can be assured that sound quality isn't part of them.
