Question Diamond Audio MP525 setup

I just ordered some MP525 to replace some MM1 s I fried. Looks like I gave them too much power. I am going to layout what I have and my next approach. Hopefully somebody that knows better can verify what I am doing. I have some experience and some tools. At 400 bucks I wouldn't mind some verification on how not to burn these MP525s. I will be paying closer attention to how much voltage I am sending these speakers and working on the Math to find out exactly how much to set. Last week I just used the Oscilloscope!

Amp is just a Picasso Nano
Amazon Amazon
4 x 140 Watts 4 ohm Total watts? Power Squared equals your voltage to the speakers? - So 280watts Squared is 16.73 volts for front channel. OK

Pioneer MVH-512BS Used 1 khz test tone with Head unit flat except EQ set and loudness on. I did based on audio pro advice- set as you want to run then set it with a clean signal on the oscilloscope. Didnt work out so I am going to pay more attention to the voltage this time.
Bike config is currently ALL Pass 6x9 Polk MM1 Rear bags and 5.25 MM1 Front with the front getting replaced next weekend I hope.
I will add more details as I have them. Thanks for any help ya got.
I have this Lumy and another small OSc. I will report the voltage and setting as soon as I can. Any comments just add or ask. I get back to this soon.
