[QUOTE="shizzzon, post: 6256560, member: 590338"] audiobahn subs do NOT handle rated power properly. I remember having 2 Audiobahn Eternal subs, rated at 900wrms per sub and ran it off of a Cadence ZRS10. I set a test tone, made a video which should have lasted for 60 seconds but had to stop. Amp was outputting 667w of power so each sub was getting 333.5w per sub approximately. After 47 seconds, both of the subs started to heat up very quickly and one of them got partially damaged. I also used to have an audiobahn Immortal on a 1500w amp where the sub was rated at 2000wrms. I intentionally clipped it during a song and after about 100 seconds, the sub got destroyed by the tinsel leads getting scorched.... I then replaced it with the Original Audioque HD3 15.... played the same song... the whole song clipped after sub was broken in... and AQ sub never even got warm. AB subs are not properly rated therefore i would not suggest such a powerful amp for them. [/QUOTE]
