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.

1 more point to the above Remember you have to run in new speakes the sam as a new motor.
 Low to medium power for the 1st 10 or 20 houres of play then gradualy build up to max. Like a motor most of the werar and dammage is from new and from cold. But as allways this is just my $0.02
