I tried using the search feature, but it appears to be down, so I guess I'll ask. What are the primary differences/pros/cons of copper vs aluminum voice coils? I know flatwound helps dissipate heat better, allowing for more power handling. Other than that, what I have seen makes no sense to me. I have seen the higher end units using aluminum rather than copper....but I would have thought the opposite would be true since copper dissipates heat better and conducts electricity better. I must be missing something.
