yeah I really wouldn't say you can blow a sub by under powering it, that's not technically correct. You can blow a sub by giving it a clipped signal that is less than it's power rating, yes, but a clean signal that is less than it's power rating is also under powering it, and will NOT blow the sub. It is the clipping that will cause damage, not the under powering. I'm sure you understand this, you're no learner, but the way you phrase it may need looking at so that people who are new to this don't get confused.
Also OP start reading a lot of stickies etc on this forum, it will help you to learn a lot.
