A lot of the big "Oxygen Free" fuss is marketing from what I've read and been told. When making wire companies already use copper with low oxygen content and I really doubt you could hear a difference between a cable that was supposedly 99.99% Oxygen free and one that is 99% or so oxygen free.

After working in high end home theater/audio I never buy any of the big name "High End" cables.... just way too much $$ for not much benefit. I'd say definitely upgrade from those stock thin interconnects with cheap connectors, but save some money and don't buy $80 audio cables.
