Is a JBL600.1 too much power??????

[help me]

Would a JBL 600.1 be too much power for an Infinity Kappa Perfect 12.1D? The infinity is a 4ohm sub rated at 350watts RMS, 1400watts peak. Would the JBL 300.1 be better? Could the 300.1 still make the sub hit hard?

I've heard a couple people say they burned their speaker leads trying to power a perfect with a 600.1, there was also a recent post from a person who burned up their Alpine type R by using a 1200.1.

The jbl powervalves are pretty powerful amps, I would reccomend the 300.1 if you plan to power just one perfect. And if you are planning on using a sealed enclosure, I reccomend a 1.5cft enclosure. I have owned a pair of perfect 12s and I found that they sounded best with 1.5cft per sub.
