Welcome to the underground, aka the next level. Please hold onto the bar and keep your hands and legs inside at all times. |

Silver Member Username: SemperfiPost Number: 119 Registered: Oct-08 | see he knows of DD and Image Dynamix and all the other knows brands (MTX audiobahn kicker sony alpine kenwood RF pioneer) and he has owned a majority of these.... he has blown most of his subs because he powers them incorrectly (I.E. too little power) and he tells me that its doesn't matter how much power you give the sub as long as its not over the Peak... he is VERY thick headed |

Holy crap. |
Gold Member Username: LoudonPost Number: 2879 Registered: Jun-04 | dear god I never understood why someone who doesnt know anything about a subject would consistently make claims like they do. Now if you think logically about something, why would to little power blow a sub? Is it pushing it to its limits? Absolutely not. If you have a 5th grade education you can gather up enough brain mass to comprehend that. Secondly, a must agree with my man Paul up there, who would want to buy from MTX who consistently puts out videos and ad campaigns bashing people when theyve put out 2 products in which they have recieved above average reviews. the mtx 1501d and the 8500/9500 woofers. Have your friend or brother or whoever he is do alittle something called research and reading before he claims hes the messiah of car audio ... www.google.com and search car audio usually works ... |

Silver Member Username: SemperfiPost Number: 120 Registered: Oct-08 | well clipping the signal blows the sub... thats what i was getting at |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 9961 Registered: Jul-06 | Theres a big difference between using less power and running an amplifier into clipping. That can be done with any size amplifier. |
Silver Member Username: SemperfiPost Number: 123 Registered: Oct-08 | ok, sorry M.S. my bad well turning everything up on the amp and it being a 250RMS amp and putting it on a sub that should be getting 1000RMS... |
