Any assistance out there? > Your focus is to much on the speakers and not at the headunit. If the wattage of your headunit is comparatively low, you usually turn it up higher. When you do this, the amplifier will have increased distortion. This distortition may cause a signal which no real-world speaker is able to follow. It will try though and the resulting motions can cause the speaker to blow. So contrary to popular belief it is better to have a higher power amplifier than you speakers are. High power amplifiers usually have a lower distortion, so they produce a clean unsdistorded signal, which speakers can easily follow. By the time you reach amplifications that could blow up the speakers, it is most likely you will already have turned down the volume yourself. If you you didn't, I recommend you get your ears checked, you will probably need a hearing aid. At least, I assume you want music in your car, not an attempt to win a boom-car contest.
