[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8447699, member: 614752"] I had this discussion with Jacob when I visited them in their old Troutman facility. They are rated to be indestructible at the power levels at which they are rated. Which implies that with more power you can potentially hurt them. By this rating method they KNOW if you send in a blown woofer that you abused it and no room for debate. The whole topic of power handling is discussed on here by fools constantly with every nuthugger claiming his brand uses some magic pixie dust that will make its coil hold an electric oven's worth of heat indefinitely. The rubber meets the road where somebody is willing to put their money on the line and offer to warranty these products at whatever claimed power levels... hence the legitimate and reputable companies rate at numbers that are pretty much bulletproof while more sketchy companies just pull a number out of their arse then either go out of business or just weasel out of warranty claims.
