[QUOTE="PowerNaudio, post: 947574, member: 561215"] if you have a sub that can take the current from a clipped signal "off course you re not going to kill it, but you could damage the amp. if its a weak sub like the RF P1 series im sure a low frequency clipped signal will do some damage to the sub, or the amp.maybe not but why risk it?. i could make noise with a 9V battery and a speaker. but in reality its not a [B]sine wave[/B] which its [B]what i refer to as sound[/B]. a clipped sine wave carries DC voltage in which again is noise. not sound like in music "sine waves" ,its more like a square wave which again is not sound, but again it makes sounds. if you feel confotable pasing clipped signals trugh your speakers by all means do it. but dont missinform people in to thinking that its ok and it wont damage any thing because its dependent of many factors and there is no asurance that it wont damage the speakers or that it will. so with that said, watch your gaing and if you hear clipping turn it down some.
