ShadeTreeMechanic Posted December 19, 2017 Report Share Posted December 19, 2017 People still use it. Mostly because they don't understand what it is and it costs a lot less. There is a big thread here somewhere about it. Maybe it doesn't make any difference as long as the Kickers are still bumping? 91 C350 Centurion conversion ( Four Door One Ton Bronco) 250A Alternator (Second Alternator Coming Soon) G65 AGM Up Front / Two G31 AGM in Back Pioneer 80PRS CT Sounds AT125.2 / CT Sounds 6.5 Strato Pro component Front Stage CT Sounds AT125.2 / Lanzar Pro 8" coax w/compression horn tweeter Rear Fill FSD 5000D 1/2 ohm (SoundQubed 7k Coming Soon) Two HDS315 Four Qubes Each 34hz (Two HDC3.118 and New Box Coming Soon) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCA wire has more resistance than copper wire of equal size, so if you need the carry to same current you will need to use bigger wire with CCA. In certain situations you can save money with CCA wire and not lose performance. For example if the amperage requirements of your install require a wire bigger than 4 gauge OFC, but 1/0 OFC is overkill, you could use 1/0 CCA and save some bucks. Choosing the right wire is all about managing the amount of voltage drop you get. You can get the same voltage drop with CCA wire as you get with OFC, it just has to be sized differently. Here is a good voltage drop calculator if you want to see for yourself: https://www.rapidtables.com/calc/wire/voltage-drop-calculator.html "Nothing prevents people from knowing the truth more than the belief they already know it.""Making bass is easy, making music is the hard part."Builds: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
