[QUOTE="zane, post: 13222, member: 540617"] Since you are assuming everything, I will set the record strait. My old JL 12W0's were being pushed by an Orion HCCA2100G4. The subs were mounted in the rear deck of my 85' Tbird facing strait up. These were the first set of subs I used in this install. I later progressed to 2 W6's, then two Polk Momo 12's and the onto 2 Infinity Perfect 12's. Regaurdless, this was a new install that I was evaluating efficiency upon. I never said this was a smart idea out of the blue, however it worked and the W0's were able to handle the power for a considerable ammount of time. (approximately a month and a half - if memory serves.) The woofers were being abused for all practical purposes with that much power, however, in doing so I verified that the design of my install was quite efficient and suitable for further use. In doing so, I was also able to measure the abillities of the woofer beyond what JL had rated them at. I will be the first to say that the W0's are quite under-rated too. You may also find it interesting that Richard Clark, Tom Nousaine, Howard Doctor, etc all have in house amplifiers capable of 10,000 watts or greater output. These are used for thier testing purposes when they evaluate woofers for the reviews they print in thier respective magazines.
