[QUOTE="thch, post: 2320312, member: 562032"] yes nominal impedance. I didn't want to use "impedance" in the forumla as its not technically correct but the differences aren't important because nominal impedance is treated as a resistance. as for power handeling. you must ensure the speaker does not overheat or overexurt. so long as you do this you can clip all you want with the only penelty being distortion. still, with no thermal probing or means to measure excursion, this goal may be difficult. so use the oscope and assume that the manufacturer accurately rated the woofer for your application.
