I burnt up the vc on my brahma the first day i had it cus i ran about 1600 wrms into it for about 4 minutes and forgot to take off that god dang lid on the magnet. I never had it up very high so i'm sure i was running less than 1600 watts, but my amp was capable of doing that much. It sounded like shit so i was trying to figure out what happened. I went on the adire audio forum and asked and they told me to take off the lid. I went and took off the lid and it was making rattling noises and shit so i knew it was jacked up. I had to sent it back to adire and have yet to get it back, its taken like over a month now. and they made me pay 50 bucks for the recone. I think its there fault for putting a black lid on the back and not putting a remove label or anything on it. Its also not in the instructions anywhere. And since i never saw a brahma before or heard about the lid on the magnet so i had no idea, i just hooked the thing up and started playing it, i was in a big hurry that day cus i had a math test to study for. Oh well, i guess there have people that have put a lot more than 1600 watts to them for burps and been just fine, but i'd be careful, well i guess it doesnt matter to you since you have every subwoofer under the sun you can just replace it but for me that meant over a whole month with no bumps in my trunk. Its a horrible thing to have to go through, just horrible
