[QUOTE="Cruzer, post: 7250708, member: 617686"] your right that a sub plays very limited frequencies. however what ur missing is this. 90% of car audio is about the spl level. so sure in theory u can buy an icon and so long as u dont push it to its limits, it will have a respectably low distortion. however, u and i both know 90% of people will push that sub to its very hardest, which is why u underrate it. so it can at least stand up to the thermal limits people will throw at it. but what u seem to ignore, or perhaps u dont think it happens(granted most that push subs to limits dont care about sq or distortion) when u push the sub to its limits, the distortion is off the charts. thats why things like xbl2, tc motor(forgot name of it), AE's motor were born. so u can push the crap out of the sub(within its thermal rating) and it will sound identical at volume 5 and volume 35. u will not have tons of distortion the harder u push it. but hey i agree with you, power is getting cheaper, and so long as people are willing to make the electrical upgrades, people will always run tons of power, which is why fi and yourself sell so many subs. no one is interested in a 1000 watt sub now days, they want to run 5k. you would be a fool to not join in on that and make money and sell 5k rms drivers [/QUOTE]
