[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 541088, member: 555320"] LOL.......sorry, but you are severely mistaken. If distortion killed speakers, then everytime a guitarist used the distortion peddle your speakers would blow. The speaker "distorts" because it is being pushed beyond it's limits because of the amount of power being sent to it. Hence, the [B]amount of power[/B] pushes the speaker beyond either it's 1) thermal limits, or 2) it's mechanical limits. You can send a fully clipped (i.e. severely distorted) signal to a speaker, and as long as the speaker doesn't reach it's thermal or mechanical limits the speaker will be 100% fine. But you can go ahead and try to send an "undistorted" true 1000w to a 200w sub......let us know what happens............. [/QUOTE]
