[QUOTE="Immacomputer, post: 5080408, member: 570419"] What you're noticing isn't a change in the damping factor but just how power scales. The damping factor of the amp will help control cone movement around resonance (system resonance, not the tuning frequency of the enclosure) but it won't change much with increased power. The relationship between power and cone movement is not linear and neither is the relationship between power and output. My sub gets moving pretty nicely on a 100 watt amp I have and doesn't move a whole lot more on the 300 watt amp but the difference in output is noticeable. That's completely normal but not because of the damping factor. [/QUOTE]
