[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8854996, member: 689267"] Your statement is conditional, not actual. You can destroy any speaker with gains set to cause clipping above an acceptable level – it will ruin any driver attached to it. As long as you don't drive the amplifier into clipping, it won't hurt, but it's not very easy to hear a small (but big enough to kill a driver) distortion on a subwoofer, so many people kill their subs by under powering them and pushing the amp too far without knowing it. The same in essence as incorrect gain settings causing the issue which would be a condition imposed by the user, not applicable laws of physics. [/QUOTE]
