Has anyone ever tried cables made with OCC (Ohno Continuous Cast) Copper?


I know cables made with OCC (Ohno Continuous Cast) Copper are manufactured by a few cable makers, some super expensive (neotechcable.com/) and some moderate.  Some sell bulk cable.
I'm looking at some from Ramm Audio, http://aecoustics.com.

In theory, it seems they should be better sounding.  Anyone have any experience with these?

@dougthebiker - OCC copper (or the various other variants along the same lines) make a significant difference over OFC copper - mainly in the area of dynamic performance.

Clarity, Details and Tonal Neutrality are closely tied to the cable geometry and the insulations used

  • a good cable geometry will lower the noise floor in a cable
  • an effective insulation also lowers the noise floor
  • the result of these two aspects result in improved clarity and details that ultimately result in a more spacious and detailed image

If you want to understand more about these aspects take a look at this link

If you have any questions just ask

If you are not into DIY, then I would give a +1 to Zavfino products as posted above.

  • they use OCC copper and OCC silver
  • they employ and advance geometry and advanced insulations
  • they have a range of products that are affordable
