[QUOTE="zane, post: 18376, member: 540617"] Well, to be point blank honest, you were a little misinformed on that matter. So long as the gains/volume are used properly and not abused, your amplifier is producing clean power- which is good. What happens most of the time, is that people purchase small amps due to financial reasons ,and when they discover that the amp is not powerful enough to produce the output they are looking for; they try to compensate for this lack of output by increasing the gain or the volume control settings. Once they have done this, the amplifier is driven into clipping and is no longer producing clean power; it is producing a distorted,clipped, power signal- which is very bad for speakers; regaurdless of how much power is actually delivered. In the end, it all comes down to user error........ Hopefully this explains things a little better for you. If you have any other questions, by all means please ask. I would be happy to elaborate a little farther if needed. take it easy, -zane [/QUOTE]
