i'm running everything off an alpine pdx v9 5 channel amp. everything gets it's own channel. so 100w rms each, with 500w rms going into the sub.

i don't pay attention to wattage values. wattage doesn't kill speakers, distortion does in the form of heat. if the crossovers are set so the speaker isn't trying to reproduce frequencies it can't, they can't distort, which can't create as much heat, which can't destroy the speakers.
