    Why the high watt spec in subwoofer amplifiers?

    "Fast" and "slow" subwoofers: can we put them to bed?

    My subwoofers are all "slow". I know this because I usually can catch up to mine in a dead heat, with favorable winds. But seriously, I do see this subject crop up all the time. I'm sure it has been discussed before in different threads, but I'm feeling ambitious today and thinking maybe I...
