spyder, that shouldnt blow your sub unless you kept it cranked all the time. perhaps they just overrated the sub? if its a 600 watt amp thats actually wired to push out 600 watts, than it will only push 600 watts at full blast. even still it will take alot of abuse to blow the speaker, because at 500rms its probably has a max power handling of 700-1000 watts. so you would have to keep it at full blast for a long time to blow the sub. maybe your amp is going, or you should switch sub brands? the new eclipse subs are hooooooooot

oh :O</P>
nevermind then. if its 500 watt max than it will only handle 500 watts for short bursts. any sustained current over 250 watts to that sub will heat up the driver like a jiffy pop over an inferno. check out the eclipse aluminum or titanium subs. for the money i think the aluminum subs are the best sub out there for the money. theyre so deep and rich it makes me all warm n cuddly just thinking about it
