Is this actually OFC?

I found this Cadence wire and the description says it's OFC, but you guys seem to know a lot about this stuff so what do you think?

Seems kinda bullshit to me that they'd sell that much OFC for that low of a price. I call shenanigans

They're also selling 25 feet of Monster 400 series for 80 bucks.

the cadence wire is not pure OFC, the copper that is used is OFC but it's CCA wire.

i can say, that cadence wire surprised the hell out of me. used the 4ga and 14ga speaker wire and both were win. For $80 for a spool of 50ft, i'd go with it over the knuconceptz fleks cca any day!

well I need it for an AQ3500 and AQ4x90 and I would do two runs of course.

I have ran both CCA and OFC

I really didnt hear or see any difference.

maybe on paper the OFC is better

I've heard that unless you're competing (like trying to gain .1 db), you're not going to see much difference between OFC and CCA.

With that being said, I still run OFC.
