Shoot as we had mentioned before I get good sound out of the GZs in my batwing with only 150 clean watt with a tune on them from a DSP. They sounded OK with a flat signal going to the amp but didn't have much punch, just loud and clean. I just dropped the mid frequencies a little bit and it added some punch.
I guess in some cases when folks need to run big wattage to these things hearing loss, wind and exhaust noise may be a factor.

Will let you guys know here soon how they sound. I'm going to match my gain to 39.5 volts while running test hrtz and multimeter. Should be sending around 330 watts from guys who do this everyday. Shut off low pass and bass boost and run high pass around 85 Hertz
It's only a set of speakers fellas. Push em to the limit!

What does the amp have to do with pushing too much power to a speaker that cant handle it??
Or speaker brand for that matter, if that's what you meant. Too much power is too much power.

Brother you can take their comments and run with them if you choose but I'm here to tell you, if you run 400 watts to those speakers, without a DSP you will blow them to hell quick fast and in a hurry!!!! Without a DSP in the mix I would push no more than 250 watts per speaker. This is coming from someone that's not selling you jackshit and has nothing to gain. Carlos knows his **** but he's gonna get a lot of folks in deep water that think they can emulate what he does in his videos. You cannot run that much power to them without a DSP. Period.
