Silver Member Username: KillswitchjdPost Number: 487 Registered: Apr-06 | i say give it the full 800 watts rms, what good would it do a company to overrate subs? amps it makes sense... not subs, but i have no idea... |
Gold Member Username: Matt12490California USA Post Number: 2296 Registered: May-05 | I'm sure some companies overrate their subs too because people who don't know their stuff would think "Oh look this sub has a high wattage, it must be much louder than those other subs." |
