correct clipping

just wondering how do you clip an under powered sub? also i have seen many people say on here that under powering a sub isn't harmful? but over powering it is, im lost now.

REST IN PARADISE BIG RICH (Sqmonte) never forgotten

Why do you guys ALWAYS dispute on NUMBERS?????

It's such a played out argument, so fucking annoying....

It's 12 fuckin 15's.... It's louder than you... Shut the fuck up...

at any power level the signal can be clipped. turning your deck up to high on most decks sends a clipped signal. I just got home from child court but if anyone hasnt went more in depth by the time im back then i'll break it down a little more. im off to SS&S though

It's not driving it with low power that is the problem, hell if it was you could never turn a system down (not that many of you do).

But with a small driving force, you think it's not loud enough. Up goes the volume, vmax is reached on the amplifiers but it's still not loud enough, so you push it a little harder. vmax is breached, waveform clips and you get wonderful wierd square wave goodness that you loudspeakers don't like. Having a small amplifier often leads to pushing it way too hard and trying to get output that just isn't possible. It really doesn't take much to drive amplifiers over the limit if their continous measured output is less of that for the correpsonding driver.

Cheers,

Mick
