whatever happend to the argument that power does not blow speakers? and why do people tell others to set their gains low to avoid this? my pioneer deck has 2v outputs.....with the lack of a dmm i set my gains to the highest setting, which is +9 (of the available 0, +6, or +9) on my alpine mrd-m501.
the best protection for your drivers is your ear, if they're bottoming out, or are distorting, then you know you have problems. The sundown audio nightshade for example is a high end competition sub rated at like 1000rms(or around there) but can take 6000+watts on burps and be fine......power does NOT kill subs

And yes some woofers can take 6000w burps....BURPS is the key word there. They last all of 3 seconds. Running 6kwdaily on your woofers is just retarded

been like this for quite some time now jag, no problems and it sounds pretty good. reason i didnt set it with a dmm is because i dont have one....
and i just used the nightshade for an example.....my 501 will not clip on bass i love you untill i have it at like 90% volume....
