[QUOTE="zane, post: 7666, member: 540617"] There would be no problems whatsoever. If the gain control is properly set to match the HU and the volume control is not used as compensation for input power. The only way to hurt a speaker by underpowering is by user error. That link basically is correct, save for a few minor things, however is very misleading. They make it sound as if underpowering is bad all together, and do not put enough emphisis on how it is user error and stupidity that cause the problems. (no offense anyone) When equipment is installed and adjusted correctly- there is no possible way that underpowering will cause damage. Check out this one as it is far more informative: [URL="http://www.eatel.net/~amptech/elecdisc/2ltlpwr.htm"]http://www.eatel.net/~amptech/elecdisc/2ltlpwr.htm[/URL] [/QUOTE]
