That's cool, I live in South Dakota too :D I never play my sub full tilt in winter, no matter how long I've been warming it up.. When I get in in the morning to go to school I only play it on about 7-10 volume so I can still get a little bump but not too much just to be careful. I just don't take the chance I guess.

You should be fine. If anything it might even be better for the subwoofers because they wont reach their thermal limits or get warm/hot anywhere near as easily. I have 2 T1s in my car and I've had these for 2 winters already and they haven't given me any issues.

If you have any questions relating to nutrition, lifting, or health in general, feel free to give me a PM and I will give you straight forward advice with no BS involved.
