Can't get the one from Skque and on amazon its temporarily sold out. Found this instead, https://www.kabeltje.com/oehlbach-l...m2-30m?zenid=09b1e4148af57fd5ee133c9a6733cc49 75 euro's for 100 ft and 10awg Maybe the better choice Click to expand... The Monoprice will be fine - no need to spend extra money for thicker cable, that will not make a difference in sound quality. Reactions: davyb

See, the Oehlbach cable product page doesn't mention anything about the composition of the wire. It could be copper-clad aluminum. Given the price, it's likely not, but I don't think it's worth the gamble. Why can't you order from Skque? Their international shipping page claims they'll ship to Europe (although I have no clue what Zone 1, Zone 2, or Zone 3 means). Could you order directly from Monoprice? (Or if you prefer, clear jacket. They've also got good prices for banana plugs, good quality HDMI cables -- including active Redmere cables if your display is far away from your receiver, subwoofer cables, optical cables, and so on.) They appear to ship USPS Priority International. Last edited: May 4, 2015

The Oehlbach is OFC, here is another link (http://www.avtrader.nl/specificatie...utm_nooverride=1&utm_content=discardeddefault) And ordering from monoprice would cost me 50 dollars in shipping alone, maybe if I would buy everything there it would be cheaper but I doubt it.
