[QUOTE="synikalt, post: 3165920, member: 572700"] I was under the impression that underpowering your sub meaning...getting an amp that does 500w rms for a sub that can handle 1000w rms @ 1 ohm. for example. It doesnt neccesarily happen just by underpowering in general...but people try to pull more out there amp for their sub, max out the gain, bass boost, max out volume on their hu anything to get more out of their amp for their sub, which can cause the amp to clip. and send bad signals to the sub which can damage it. thats what i was trying to explain to the guy but then agian, this is what ive read from threads on THIS FORUM...im not that much of an expert on car audio..you may know more so you can explain to the guy and me as well whats wrong with getting an amp that does more than the sub can handle [/QUOTE]
