Sounds like we more or less agree, and are about to argue the two ends; some can, but its not a guarantee.Again I never said the OP NEEDS to run double RMS just saying he will be ok..
For instance.. I had a pair of JL 10w3v2-D6 subs.. 300 watts rms each. I ran them for a year on a Phoenix Gold Zenon 600.1
They sounded pretty good.. Switched amps to a Zapco and was getting 1100 RMS and it was like the subs woke up and they could handle the juice.. They lasted a decade before the foam surrounds started cracking..
I'll gladly run more power than needed over "just enough" or under RMS all day.
Go over on DIYMA and ask how many people run double rms on their front stage.
Again I'm not arguing this is something you need or should do, I simply said it will be ok and not cause problems if you can hear your subs/speakers reaching their limits..
For your last question of course not, I never said that.
Fair enough. I'm not trying to make an argument out of it, and I certainly don't know enough at this moment to honestly try to. It also wasn't what the OP asked, or a needed part of this thread.
I suppose if you wanted to, you could try to explain what this is to finish it out.
We could always search though if we wanted to learn more about that, (I'd bet there are youtube vids).If you know what it sounds like when subs are reaching there limits it is not a problem.
