Bronze Member Username: SmhuosrktaysRochester, New York USA Post Number: 76 Registered: Sep-04 | ok, thanks, i wont be underpowering it enough to damage it will I? On the site it says "... and will reach full excursion in most applications with between 600 and 700 watts." Wont it be giving it 500? |

USA duh Post Number: 1374 Registered: Nov-04 | nope...maybe 300-350, and underpowering it will not hurt it at all...overpowering will i quote jonathan a while back "you can give any given woofer 1 watt for a million years and it still wont blow...." |

Now its time to save and ungrade to a h/o alt and the big 3. My amp has a subsonic filter and has a protection mode, would these help to prevent it from clipping? |
