Imagine that, another gain setting question

[Digital Designs 10+ year member]

Well, I downloaded a 60hz tone, and went out to the car to see what kinda of power I was running to my Type R(D4). The amp is an Audiopipe AP15001D. I turned the tone on and it shows 50 volts! That is like 1300 watts, which my amp cant even do at 2 ohms. The sub wasnt even getting warm after playing full tilt for at least a half hour, and I heard absolutely no distortion. I turned the gains back so it came up with around 37.5 volts which is like around 700 watts. The sub is moving pretty good but I dont hear any distortion(I have cranked them for a second to make sure I knew what distortion sounded like) Anyways, my question is, does this mean my sub has seen 1300 clipped watts for the last week, and hasnt even broken a sweat from it?

Did you test your voltage with the subs still hooked up?

No, the tutorial said to disconnect the subs.

Are you using bass boost?

Nope, bass boost and all EQ settings were turned off/set to 0.
