[QUOTE="headless, post: 3672329, member: 566363"] I'd feel nervous pushing 300w to those...hell, my power line cs at ~340w per side are completely maxed out - and at less than that they have considerably more throw than my old set of germaniums - they are 250w maximum according to rainbow specs. I rarely get near 300w to those and when there is 600w going to the fronts you can seriously tell in a major way - they're considerably beefier drivers than the cmx line... they actually produce more volume around 60-100hz than my ported 10" CVR is capable of - while playing the entire range of sound above that clearly. It's sick. For comparison, here's a shot of the power line cs next to the germanium woofers which are roughly equivalent to the cmx's... [IMG]http://headless.shackspace.com/GermPowerlineCS2.jpg[/IMG] 300w/side is excessive for those cmx's imo. My germaniums liked that much power, but at the same time, i did have problems with my germ woofers dying too, and we never discovered if it was teething pains on the new line (germaniums) or simply too much power for them to handle...and they did not actually pull all 300w at any time; they reached their limits before that point.
