Subwoofer durability? Options

[FreddyTheOthaMea...]

So I dont know if its just bad sales reps selling me whatever they want or whatever but it seems like i rip thru subwoofers really fast (either the VC blows or with my infinity subwoofers the wire that connects to the spider on the cone actually physically seperates) what would yall suggest for a 1000 watt (MAX) amp (kenwood excelon) ? I was rockin 2 12" eclipse titanium subs that just blew after about a year and a half of use/abuse which is the longest ive ever made any subs last. they would usually blow after a couple of weeks and then the sales rep would act like i went out of my way to destroy it when i would try to get it replaced.

I typically try to keep my subs RMS level somwhere around the peak output of the amp. It requires you to get more expensive subs than you would probably need otherwise but ten again they never blow. R-F subs have been very good to me. I once made two R-F 15"s last through 8 years of abuse - seriously I was so sick of those subs I was half relieved when someone sabotaged them at a meet.

That sir, would still require an ass-kicking

Next time we're meeting and this person comes around, let me know so i can keep an eye on my sh!t...
