The Curse of CCA (copper clad aluminium). I took an oath!

My experience with wiring speaker systems taught me the hard way to avoid CCA like the plague! The cca wire I used failed a number of times; bad connections, corrosion, bad wire, bad splicing, I got feed up with that quickly - ripped it all out and replaced with solid copper. Problem solved!

I took an oath to never use that crap again!!

Now, I'm shopping for components for a new speaker build project. In reviewing the spec sheets for some high compression drivers ( Celestion and Selenium that I know of) ) they state that the voice coils are made with CCA! How widespread is the use of CCA in speaker construction?

I don't know if the use of CCA is a serious design flaw by these manufacturers, but I won't buy that junk. Am I wrong?
