Opinion is only as valid as its verifiable supporting evidence.
Interesting. Thanks.
I may be wrong!
As I have been saying for years, most good copper wire is oxygen free,or even a better grade.
A chunk of copper is drawn into a strand miles long...if any impurities guess what happens? Breaks. Downtime. Lost profit.
Truth is much industrial copper is .9999 fine , good enough purity for the gold sold in Zurich and London...
Be careful of crap insulation containing sulfur...can you say corrosion?
Your neighbors called. They like your music.
