Is it bad to run your speaker over or under it's RMS? If so which is worse? I know in a Subs case, you can have clipping at too low watts. I doubt running a speaker at it's peak non-stop can be good for it.. I'd hate to sound like a total noob but I feel like I need to know while picking out my AMPs.
Example:
I bought a Denon DCA500 and it's RMS is 50 while my speakers RMS is 70. Both at 4ohm.
Anything to worry about? I get the feeling it is.
I'm just looking to see my speakers to their potential.
