[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8723522, member: 591582"] Like I've tuned boxes, especially when you start getting into the 1500-2000w+ range per woofer, that dampening factor really comes in. IIRC dampening factor is a capacitor stat. iirc. I may be wrong. Dampening factor determines the ability of the amp to control the movement of the woofer. The coil moving through the motor will cause electricity to be forced back into the amp through the speaker wires. That's where the capacitors come in iirc. When you are playing low notes, especially below tuning frequency, or even high notes, dampening factor is what keeps your sub from destroying itself, to an extent. Higher dampening factor means less of a chance to bottom your woofer out. [/QUOTE]
