[QUOTE="kr15, post: 6745883, member: 620194"] this sounds right. As long as the driver can dissapate the heat, you can send it whatever you want. Its just that at some point, the driver is no longer capable, and as you say "poof"..(that looks so funny when it happens). Another thing also, and I dont know if this is related at all. But amps typically are stated as having twice the max power as RMS power. Have you ever noticed a Fosgate birthsheet? The amps always (well, on the 10 or so birthsheets I have seen) have [I]3x[/I] the max power as Rms power.(Roughly) So I guess amps are capable of quite a bit more than double the RMS power. [/QUOTE]
