mwiener2 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Edit: You can't thermally blow a sub by underpowering it, unless the signal is clipped. And a sub won't automatically blow when sent a clipped signal; there still has to be enough power to overheat the voice coils. If you have a high power sub and send it low power, you can clip the bejesus out of it all day and not blow the sub. If you had read more then the last two pages you'd know that we've argued the crap out of the fact that you CAN blow a high power sub with a low power amp.

timboswag Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Also consider that amps are rated at 14.4v. When in reality often your car only has 11-12v available to your amp. Makes a significant affect on the final RMS out put. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timboswag Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) I personally like low gain due to the purity of sound in the first quarter of most amps (this is my subjective opinion) so a bigger amp than needed is great!

zangado1 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Question about the factory speakers in a 05 LGT Sedan. Im listening to the factory stereo today thinking to myself...Something doesn't sound right. Like there is no bass. So I popped the trunk since this car is still three weeks old to me and noticed that above on the rear deck there is one large round hole that looks like there was once a speaker there before. Am I missing something like a factory sub woofer or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
