Hey guys, haven't been here in a while, but I'm back-ish.

Anyways, I have a great question for you audio guys Nathan and Gary. I just picked up a competition quality Lanzar sub yesterday. And by competition, I mean it's a 12, with a 10 inch diameter magnet, has to be special ordered because they don't sell in stores, basically one of the most robust, baddest subs I've ever even heard of. Was 1200 dollars new, I got it for 25 last night off Mr. B from school. He's wayyy big into car audio, his current system is something like 7000 watts and 20+ speakers, and 3 10s he blew out last week.

Anyways. Till I get enough to get myself a 1000w amp, am I safe running this off my 300w amp (125 rms)? Even if I clip the hell out of the signal (and I'm not adjusting the amp at all from where it sits with my current 10) it shouldn't do anything to this sub right? This 12 is supposed to handle some ungodly amount of power, like 3000+ max I believe.

More to come on specifics after I take it out of the box to get the product number

The speaker will be fine, but don't turn up the gain on the amp. Distortion from the amp will hurt any speaker no matter how many watts it can take. It's the crappy distorted signal that can cause a problem too.

It will be fine. Just don't turn it up to where it's distorted.

it sounds sick, and that's one of the best paint schemes I've seen on a New Edge


I saw a Mach 1 the other day, dark slate grey with a red pinstripe on the hood btwn the paint and the decal, and black wheels, it looked awesome! Just wish he hadn't have gone by the time I got back to snap a quick pic

I think it has to do with old age. My grandparents watch PBS all the time.
