[QUOTE="Jimi77, post: 8818851, member: 673702"] I repaired amps for years. There's no reason to believe the vibrations on subwoofer enclosure are significantly worse than those of the car's floor board. The physical stress components experience mounted to a circuit board are far greater when accelerating or braking. Additionally, solder connection failures are common to all sorts of electronics not subject to vibrations (ie home audio gear & TVs). The common reason for these failures is poor assembly or design; heat causes the board to expand and contract (and potentially warp) and this leads to cold solder joints. There may be some unique designs I'd be reluctant to mount to a subwoofer enclosure, but for most amps it's a safe bet. [/QUOTE]
