[QUOTE="Tirefryr, post: 1155725, member: 550281"] Generally a small enclosure is going to increase the power handling of the driver. Problem is, the lowend extension suffers in the smaller enclosure and most people try to remedy this by throwing more power or cranking the gains. Having used a multitude of Kicker products from even their infancy, I can say I've never had a driver fail that wasn't due to my own ignorance or zealousness. I'm going to guess they were severly clipped. The fact that they lasted as long as they did is a testament to their build. Seeing as how you are dealing with your local dealer, did they do the install? If so, it was their responsibility to set the gains correctly, and IMO, their fault if they are fried. Of course this is assuming you didn't go in and screw with their settings. [/QUOTE]
