Note: Furukawa stopped producing OCC Wire many years ago, but produced a substantial amount in advance of their departure, hence Furutech have been using this Stockpiled Wire in their Brand for numerous years. 

Furukawa own the Company Fine Chemicals and Materials, which carried out the R&D for the New Wire Material PC Triple C.

PC Triple C wire used in A/B Comparisons to both OCC and OFC has shown it to be substantially improved over OFC and noticeably improved over OCC.

To date, I have exchanged Phono Tag Wires, Phono Interconnects, Speaker and Power Cables. The entirety of the Loom is not yet fully exchanged but most devices have had the Cables attached to them and improved presentation has resulted.

My offering demonstrations of these wires in other systems has been very well received by the systems owners, and there are now others I know who have took to the use of this wire and have extended the use of it beyond my own.

There is as said previously a Tonearm with it in use as a Internal Signal Wire and it is also being used as the wire internally in anther groups Phonostages. I am wondering myself if it is worth the expense to have it used as the Hard Wire within my point to point wired Phon' .  

I have also introduced DUCC Wire as well, to learn if sharing the different methods for producing the wires can offer the system a presentation that is perceived as being beneficial and offering further improvement. 

I also have available the quite expensive PC Triple C/EX Wire but am yet to put this to trial. 

I have heard the PC Triple C used as a Power Cable which has been Cryo Treated and Nano Treated, during the A/B Trial, the Nano Treated has had the most impressive impact on the system used and the devices it was used on. The Cryo Treated Power Cable owner has acquired Nano Treated Wire as a result of the experience of the trial.    

The following will supply a description of PC Triple C wire.

It is based on the Furukawa technical materials prepared by engineers, not by audiophiles. The purity of copper obtained in this process may not seem impressive as the FCM website claims the percentage to be 99.996% or more. However, this material has a completely different structure than even the PCOCC copper. The thus obtained copper has been called PC-triple C, from ​​Pure Copper-Continuous Crystal Construction. In the final production stage, the conductors are subjected to an aging process, where larger crystals coalesce with each other, forming monocrystalline areas.

Dear @best-groove : as  ​​​​​​@holmz posted Furutech used that cooper cable as a power cable item::

 

Silver wire for tonearms still is the best you can get as could be the one from Audio Note UK or the expensive Kondo or the Ikeda one.

 

SAEC tonearms does not shows nothing new with his " new " tonearm. It comes with the same design " errors " of its vintage tonearm designs but today at very high price.
