i'm trying to prove something to my friend. i'm trying to tell him that if the RMS of a woofer is 250W, and his amp can give out 150W max to that channel..... assuming that everything is flat and the source isn't clipping, he can put the gain to max without worrying about the speaker blowing or clipping.

well, thats my understanding at least. either i get schooled or i get confirmation...

thanks
