but for the price tag of a w7 i would rather have something that is reconable //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Recones aren't needed as long as the sub is used correctly //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Why bother with them? I used to try to educate kids that didnt know shit, but then i thought to myself "why help someone else get on your level and possibly be louder than you one day?" I think we should contain our knowledge here on CA.com, its like our little cult hideout for audio educated people. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

Um underpowering a sub will destroy it. Who cares about JL. The main market for JL is for uneducated people with money that buy JL because it is the most expensive or poeple who buy it because the shop does not know how to install and properly design and build enclosures so every time they install JL with a JL enclosure it always sounds better and is louder then anything else they sell or youngsters believe it is the premuim of premuim just because it carries an unrealistic price. Do not get me wrong JL is decent but not amazing by any means and certianly not worth the price.

I'm just wondering why I didn't blow my Klipsch Fortes out when I was powering them with 2 watts.

After all, they were rated for 100W //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Under powering + clipping the hell out of your speaker trying to get closer to the rms of the sub = //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif imo

Plain ole underpowering won't. How could it? You think during an entire song your sub will be seeing, let's say, 1000w?

The point to be made is that "underpowering + clipping" is still overpowering.

Please explain your point here. (honest question) yea, clipping is over powering your amp, but not your sub.

You may be sending much more power to the sub in those conditions than you may think //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
