MISCELLANEOUS Care Components of the highest quality are used in your SUB 10 subwoofer. This assures years of trouble free operation. Following precautions should still be made though. Avoid running the system into severe clipping. Even there is an advanced protection system, you may be able to destroy your subwoofer by severe overpowering. The limiter works over a certain range, but exceeding this level may send a severely clipped signal to your sub-bass loudspeaker driver.
