[QUOTE="Seth F., post: 8718696, member: 680868"] Do you have experience setting gains on your amps? Usually blowing subs means they are constantly clipping (distorting) and you have the gain knob set beyond the clipping point. If the gains are set properly you can play your tunes at a volume that you couldnt stand for more than a few minutes and never blow your speakers. This is a BIG reason most people have systems that sound like S hit and are constantly replacing gear. You can even run a 5k amp on a sub that only wants 1k RMS if you have the gains set right.
