[QUOTE="user 1447, post: 825757, member: 1447"] at the end of the day as they say when it comes to cars .... "Cars do not cause accidents it is the NUT behind the steering wheel" in the same way "amplifiers wont really cause speaker damage it is more the NUT behind the volume control" whether you believe in preventing damage by not feeding too much power to your speakers or whether you want additional headroom to help control your speakers better there is always a limit, and going over that limit is going to cause irreparable damage to your speakers .... and by the point you hear distortion its already too late since the average person only perceives intermodulation distortion when it reaches around the 10% mark ..... so moral of the story is "don't go overly wild with volume levels" (as has been pointed out continuously up above by many people already) [/QUOTE]
