uh...
All brands and impedance equal? There is no winner. Everything is equal. Do you really think your subwoofer is receiving "600 watts RMS" at 10% volume, 30% volume, 100% volume? You do realize that Steve mantz designed probably most every major manufacturer's amp at some point in time and almost all of the chinese crap are direct reproductions of his designs? You're not disputing me, just industry guru's. Did you notice that there were some major industry players in some of those threads?Also, which would give me better sound: A 600w sub on a 250w amp, or a 250w sub on a 250w amp? (all brands and impedance equal)
I hope this doesn't come off wrong but are you trying to teach me something? I provided sources concerning the ideas I brought forth; I'm not arguing my opinion. Hrmm. I'm throwing my hands up. The purpose of my comments here are for hippo and his audience. If you really think I have no idea what I'm talking about...so be it. Hopefully I've managed to help at least one or two to become curious enough to go look for answers specific to their goals.ADDED BY MOD: Link to great discussion on this topic from some respected industry experts, including people like Manville Smith of JL Audio, Mark Eldridge of JL Audio and multi IASCA world champion, and Andy Wehmeyer of Harman Kardon. : Clipping: damage from power or cone movement - CARSOUND.COM Forum
