[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 539721, member: 555320"] Since you brought this back from the dead to post [I]that[/I], I will atleast take the liberty of correcting you. Distortion nor clipping kills speakers. The speaker doesn't care if the signal is clipped or not, or distorted or not. If distortion killed speakers, then our speakers would blow every time a guitarist used the distortion peddle. The [B]only[/B] two ways to kill a speaker are: 1) to exceed the speakers thermal limits 2) to exceed the speakers mechanical limits. Send a fully clipped signal to a speaker, and as long as neither of the two previous requirements happen (thermal or mechanical failure), the speaker will be perfectly fine. Power kills speakers, not clipping or distortion. [/QUOTE]
