[QUOTE="Don Boomer, post: 148581, member: 633"] Re: Speaker protection Sorry, in late here. But I'm surprised no me asked how you set your high pass filters. You are much more likely to damage a sub by putting in a signal that is too low frequency than by putting in too much power. Stupid accidents aside, if it sounds ok while it is playing you are probably not overpowering it. But too low of a frequency will cause mechanical damage to the driver. You should set high pass filters to the -3dB frequency in the speaker specs and use an 18-24 dB/Oct high pass filter. From your our post I have no idea what the real specs are for your speakers. What specific model and make are they? [/QUOTE]
