[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 8677055, member: 549629"] I just came back to this site yesterday, and Im seeing a lot of people talking about impedance rise being a reason to buy oversized amps. Keep in mind that impedance rise is frequency based, so it applies more so to SPL competition where the sub is burping at a given frequency than it is on a daily system which plays a wide(r) frequency spectrum. This thread was started with the words "from a newbie starting point", so imo its not a good idea to recommend a largely oversized amp and then just dismiss the possible problems with 'dont full tilt' and watch for the smell of melting voice coils.
