    At one point he said he has tried OFC loaners and then he states "for him it is not worth trying". I listened to a pair of Maggies 20 years ago and it would make no more sense to discuss current production than for him to discuss cables. I am sure if he has been on other sites how quickly cable threads burst into flames.

    He obviously must see some benefit to better cables or why use BJC when you can use the cheezy free cables in the box and lamp cord. BJC holds it's own pretty well against some of the brand name entry level stuff, especially in the midrange.

    OFC is oxygen free copper which is a better grade over typical copper wire. However, there is much more to a cable than whether it's OFC, so keep an open mind. Your system has to have the resolution to reveal the benefit of a better cable as well. Now there's even better copper than even OFC, in addition, to so many brands, so many designs and applications. The bottom line for any one is to listen to judge for yourself if anything is a benefit to your listening pleasure.
