I recently built a full marty, and a martycube both with a SI HT18 with 4 ohm dual voice coil. I have them wired in series for 8 ohms, and they are each connected to one input on the iNuke6000DSP. I am just a bit confused about the power limiting for these.
On the Stereo Integrity page, it says the drivers are rated at 660W RMS, while at 8 ohms at full power the iNuke is said to be able to deliver 1100W to each channel. Does this mean that if the iNuke is outputting full power (the red light is on to indicate clipping) that there would be damage happening to the driver, or would that only happen if it is at full power for a sustained period of time?
Btw, thank you all for the tutorials that are posted around the forum for the Marty series of subwoofers, I wouldn't have been able to get them built without all the help from the original posts, as well as the great questions and answers!
