[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8726083, member: 591582"] Clipping and voltage drop at the amp go hand in hand. People will make clipped signals (where the wave looks more like a square wave the worse the clipping is) because the amp should be a certain loudness. So people turn up the amps sometimes too much to make up for the lack of electrical system. So then you have low voltage and clipping, which really kills your equipment. Makes everything heat up, the sub, the amp, low amp alts are really at full output and struggling. [/QUOTE]
