[QUOTE="its_bacon12, post: 7473244, member: 558729"] Trial and error is the only way for certain to say for your situation. My guess it it would be fine off anywhere from 250-600w assuming it's not thermally overloaded.. Don't get stuck on one specific number like 500w because from 300 to 500 in theory will yield less than 3 dB gain and even less in reality. It's not a ground pounder sub, so keep that in mind. The 300w rating is thermal too, so if you have it in a larger box, expect mechanical limits to be reached before thermal limits. [/QUOTE]
