''I'd start saving for a second 3402 - in theory that should give you 12-1400w per cab

''Even with 2500 watts a box I haven't really discovered what seems to be a clear power limitation.''

''I run my 3002's bridge-mono giving 3000 watts @ 4 ohms per cabinet. The first green (labeled "signal") LED on the amp just tickle's on and stays on for the majority of the signal input. I hit LED's 2 & 3 (-20 and -10) for the transient bursts''

Regardless of what people say they use, and what music with bass content they may use-
the issue remains that certain people beleive that u can input more power into efficient horns, and i beleived them, it made sense.

i see both sides of the issue, only 1 can be correct
;-)

should i try it-make a labhorn and input 2kw sine for a week?
perhaps its a simple matter of some one saying RMS instead of Music power in a post i saw, setting me off on a tangent.


Cheers
