I gota 2nd this its a sub, it wants you to use it. That being said, don't plug it in and press play with it cranked. I "brake in" my subs.. kinda... I go out into the middle of nowhere (cuz I got 18s haha) and I spend the day playing with it, I'll start around 60% volume and bring it up slowly across a couple hours turning it up now n then till I'm pushing it to around where I'd like to stop at, for me its around 2x1800watts bridged at around 95% volume. Just do the math of your sub verse amp and you should know roughly what your head-room looks like and just creep up to that, I don't see any reason why you should have to wait a couple weeks to near-max your sub out, just creep up to it verse just throwing the loud volume on and you should be fine. If its anytihng smaller then a 12' I wouldn't even bother trying to play it safe, crank'er up regardless.
