[QUOTE="Logikalliquid, post: 1137810, member: 550010"] Most speakers blow because of distortion not over power, as long as you set the gains right to avoid clipping you're good. Usaully the manufacturer will have an RMS and a [B][I]Peak[/I][/B] power rating. Matching RMS is generally a good thing with decent equipment. Most of the time, you won't be sending a full 100w to the speakers anyway due to impedance rise and music dynamics. That all depends on the speaker and how clean the signal is you send to it. You can blow a 1000w sub off 100w if you really want to. You could also potentially send it 2000w(albeit not for great period of time) and not blow it. [/QUOTE]
