[QUOTE="LoneRanger, post: 56819, member: 540903"] On the subject of torturing audio equiptment, i'm reminded of my first attempt at car audio. I actually got talked into a pair of 8" jensen bass cannons by a CC salesman ("the enclosure makes them sound like a pair of 12's at least!"). I was complaining to a friend that i was sick of the bass cannons after a week of owning them, and that i wish i had a reason to take them back to circut city. He suggested that we cook them with his Audio Art 100HC and take them back. We'd have a valid reason because they were rated at 300w each, and the amp was (VERY) conservativly rated at 50w x 2 @ 4 ohms. Long story short, those cannons cooked like hot dogs on the fourth of july. They hit louder than any other jensen bass cannons i've ever heard for about 30 seconds, then seperated both cones COMPLETELY from the cheap-*** foam surround. I got my money back and invested in a much better system. [/QUOTE]
