[QUOTE="John_E_Janowitz, post: 6133526, member: 550657"] haha. just a note on the wall socket. 120V, 20A circuit. The resistance of the coil at 60hz is almost exactly 3ohm. I = V/R so 120/3 = 40amp P = 1^2 R so 40^2*3 = 4800W That may be a LITTLE too much for continuous use. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't go do something stupid and throw 4800W to the woofer and break it because I just can't warranty that. John [/QUOTE]
