[QUOTE="pwnt by pat, post: 1812476, member: 556604"] Yeah, the power when you clip your amp. Or the heat power. Or (obvious and excluded due to obviousness) excessive power that forces the woofer to try and perform past it's mechanical limits. I remember reading a nice debate about giving speakers thousands of watts Here's a nice little read - mostly about clipping: When you power the coil, it heats up. Too much power, too hot of a coil and it melts. If heat dissipation wasn't a problem, then you wouldn't have speakers with vented poles. [/QUOTE]
