[QUOTE="dB-r, post: 6185883, member: 574699"] Sorry forgot to insert quote: I don't know what they really meant, but they maybe concerned about overheating because in comps, even burping at 20V @ .25 ohm isn't as harsh as riding around town for an hour banging at full tilt on 14V setup. Amp will get super hot doing that, add some extra voltage or extra low impedances (like .25-.5) and you got a mess if you can keep your amp cool... gonna shutdown or explode one or the other. maybe that's what they meant I don't know, but like I said, not sure if the Stetsoms or SD amps would overheat in a daily, as long you stayed within rated specs and voltage. That's what Stetsom swears by anyway, like I said I will find out soon for myself as I get my setup together in my car where I can throw an amp in there and worry more about the amp burning up than the subs, gonna throw 2 18" IA DP's in there, they will take a serious wooping before giving out.
