[QUOTE="Immacomputer, post: 3098670, member: 570419"] You actually were sending it more than 200 watts. If you had the bass boost maxed and at high volume, there is about a 99% chance you were clipping the signal by the amp. This causes your amp to actually put out much more power than it's rated for. It's really sending a square wave to the sub and that square wave actually has more power in it. Bass boost is a bad thing and should never be used... period. Also, learn how to set your gains correctly. It's not JL's fault that you do not know how to setup and use your equipment. This was 100% user error. [/QUOTE]
