This cable is sooooo good that i was shocked. I did not expect this level of warm neutral detailed rich, open and airy sound from anything less then the best UP-OCC. I used to believe that OFC copper that is not cast in the Ohno Continuous casting proces and was very good quality oxygen free copper perhaps but not cast in that "special" mono crystal way, would always be less in performance then one hat was true OFC copper OCC casted. But this cable changed my opninion and my recommendations to all friends and clients, Forget about OCC and only watch for those magic three letters.... I have put WBT pure copper spades on one side and viablue banana plugs on the speaker side, The cable that it replaced was one that was 40x more expenisve 10AWG massive Lab grade OCC copper. And this 5080 humiliates that well known brand and not just by a hair, but a mile,,,,,, This Cable Is Too Good for the proce friens, Make sure you strip and mount it like it has to be done. Use the flat conductor to maximize contact surface between the conductors and connectors.... GianT killer this one
