the reason a speaker blows when you turn it up too loud is because the coil gets hotter and hotter when the cone moves a lot. it will eventually get so hot that the coil will start to smoke then crackle and then stop working.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

What will a 3000 watt amp do to a 300 watt speaker?

Using a 3000 watt amp with a 300 watt speaker can potentially damage the speaker due to overpowering it. The excessive power can cause the speaker to blow out or distort the sound quality. It's important to match the power ratings of the amp and speaker to prevent damage.


Is the sound louder the larger the watts speaker rating?

In laymen 's terms, yes. But the "Watts" of a speaker is not what the total power of the speaker is. The are usually two different ratings for speakers to determine the total power. One is "RMS", which means root-means square. And the terms "peak or continuose power". A speaker can be 400 Watts, 360 RMS, 390 continuous power. That means it will take an amp at least 400 Watts to drive the speaker properly. And the speaker will perform at 360 Watts RMS, and peak out at 380 Watts continuous power. Remember, u can't blow a speaker from overpowering it. Only from under power. The speaker will distort and sound horrible from overpowering, but it will not blow.

What could cause woofers on Klipsch b-20 speakers to repeatedly blow?

Driving the speaker with too much power is usually the problem. In a surround sound setup, make sure your choose 'small speaker' for the speaker type on your receiver if you are using the B20's as front or center channel speakers. This will offload some of the low frequencies from those channels to the subwoofer.


How can you tell if your speakers are about to blow out?

When you're overpowering a speaker, if you keep the power going, the sound will all the sudden get a lot "fartier", in some cases sounding like you're bouncing a ton of stuff on the speaker. As it gets worse, it starts to sound a little like static, depending on the speaker. At that point it'll get quieter and worse untill you get nothing. Then it's blown.

Of course. You will not get that "in your face" low end sound, and if you crank up the volume, you can blow a speaker out, but if you're sensible about it, it should work fine.
