can a sub ever blow off a good signal?

[QUOTE="Full Tilt, post: 8094428, member: 640249"] Where do you have the gains set on your APSM? I wouldn't exactly consider that clean power... But like it's been said, most subs can take quite a bit more power than they're rated for if the power is totally clean. However, even with a clean signal, you're probably not going to be able to throw 2500w daily at a 600w driver. It's all about the subwoofer's mechanical and thermal limits - if the sub is pushed too hard, it can start leaving it's gap or bottoming out, potentially damaging the subwoofer. After a while, all of that power causes heat, which will eventually cause deterioration of some soft parts after long periods of time. [/QUOTE]
