I've noticed that many high end brands will purposely underrate there subs when they describe them online. Here's a quote from Skars website "This woofer is built to take abuse beyond it's rated power handling of 600 Watts RMS" and its known across this community that they have a good RMS rating of around 1200 watts, thats double output! Do they do it so it makes there subs look better to the consumer? I mean if I was a consumer, I'd definitely look at a sub that had 1200 watts RMS vs a sub that said 600 watts RMS. And since the same goes for amp's I'll extend the question to amps as well.
