Worth upgrading?

[jacko 10+ year member]

Is it worth upgrading my Audiobahn a2002t(rated 50x2wrms) to a Power Acoustik LT620/2(rated 150x2wrms), for my infinity 6000cs comp set(rated 90wrms)? When it's all done it will be about $60 to upgrade, is it worth it in your opinion?

8 hour bump?

them speakers work well with low power(50-90w)

150 watts should kill them in pretty quick fashion

i was planning on turning down the gain a bit though so that it didn't put out a full 150wrms. It would just keep options in the future open though in case I wanted better speaks. That and that A-bahn doesn't nessecarly put out 50wrms, it's just rated as such.

It can be done, I've put double the rated power into componnets without any problems, Just xover the low frequencys as those are what will cause all the heat in the coils and be reasonable with the gain setting.
