Which would you chose and why? Benefits and drawbacks of each? 

Thanks!

"I recognize that it's very difficult to make comparisons where only one factor has been changed"...

Yet it is just that 1 thing that makes the audible difference and the diy thing worth trying in the first place.period.

"When comparing OFC to OCC in general, the OFC wire can sometimes be a bit harsher sounding and there is definitely a loss of resolution with OFC"

I concur this statement...after diy’ing a few ac/speaker cables.OFC has a little more "smack/but slight glare" to timber but tone is truer with OCC i feel...Auxinput has it right...synergy.
