SnowDrifter Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 The cca is really cheap also. Just an FYI But CCA sucks Anyone know how many amps they are rated for? Both ofc and cca Depends on how long the wire is and how much voltage drop is acceptable to you ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNF Kevosinn Posted May 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Everyone says cca sucks then they get in my truck for a 3 song demo and watch my voltage go up not down and they don't say anything haha but I agree ofc is better. Everyone that wants prices go on their ebay store or message them on face book. The cca is 2.99 a foot and I'm going to check on the ofc but I believe it's around 4.50 a foot. *** SuperSeller Status Verified *** ( http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/25829-super-sellers-buyers/ ) "kevosinn's" astro van 8 custom Sundown Zv4 18's 4 Sundown scv 6000's CNF Distribution CNC parts Skyhigh wire some batteries SMD Meters and tools used on the installhttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172877-kevosinns-vanwest-coast-skyhigh-car-audio-vehicle/ 16,000 watt walled silverado build.http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/161965-walled-silverado-4-hdc4-15s-4-crescendo-3500s-and-much-more/ 8,000 watt 1999 Subaru legacy outback.

TeamHT Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Wonder when he'll get 1/0 gauge back in. I wonder if he'll add some jacket colors...like green? Please? Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNF Kevosinn Posted May 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 1/0 is back in stock! It's the new oversize stuff also. I think he only has red blue and black right now though. *** SuperSeller Status Verified *** ( http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/25829-super-sellers-buyers/ ) "kevosinn's" astro van 8 custom Sundown Zv4 18's 4 Sundown scv 6000's CNF Distribution CNC parts Skyhigh wire some batteries SMD Meters and tools used on the installhttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172877-kevosinns-vanwest-coast-skyhigh-car-audio-vehicle/ 16,000 watt walled silverado build.http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/161965-walled-silverado-4-hdc4-15s-4-crescendo-3500s-and-much-more/ 8,000 watt 1999 Subaru legacy outback.

I guess I should clarify. I see no point in using CCA. It works, yes. But you need more runs to accomplish the same thing. By the time you factor in the extra effort to make more runs cost of terminals, solder, fuses, grommets. Whatever. Your cost performance ratio ends up being about the same as OFC anyway. So why not save the effort and use that from the beginning. It's not that it sucks. It's that I don't see why it is worth using ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamHT Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 1/0 is back in stock! It's the new oversize stuff also. I think he only has red blue and black right now though. Hmm, I was on the eBay store this morning and only saw the 2/0 but maybe I'll look again. He does have the red, black, and blue. But I really want black and green to match the paint job I like CCA. You don't really need two runs to equal one run if OFC and think it's just more of a personal preference. Maybe I'll wire with OFC and then meter and measure and then run CCA and meter and measure afterwards. I've used both and installed both. The performance for the price is pretty crazy. Especially when you need like 400'. I mean, you're talking about $300 to $1,100. Huge difference. Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

tacomaguy1 Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 I just got a roll of 1/0 ofc on Friday....interested to see how it compares to knu flex. Like $30 cheaper and it shipped the same day ftw Team Flex Issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyblack76 Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Good stuff.. And to each their own.. Ill only run OFC. Even for my speaker/driver wire. Dont matter, either way, this wire is fantastic.. for what ever your looking for. I saw tool maker making some gear for 2/0. Thats what held be from using it. My entire build is set, bought, prep'd for 1/0. Even the FtR runs. So, i stayed. But, that stuff, is no joke, held it in my hands 2 weeks ago. And, its surprisingly workable. Yet, still tuff as nails. Good shit. for sure..... SMD SUPER SELLER The Burban Build Blazer Build sold Acura trunk build sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamHT Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Mind you I've almost ALWAYS used OFC in all my builds until recently. I'm surprised at how well the CCA does. I know it's not as good as OFC but it seems to be working and working well. If I was limited on space and runs I'd definitely use OFC, but you know. Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

Kyblack76 Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Agree.. im not gonna start "that pissing" match.... for sure bro. Used my fair share of CCA. But,.. i also like what i like.... no disrespect, no hate. Carry on.... My point was, that BOTH SHCA carries are worth it..... for SHOOOOOOOWWWW..
