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.

^ x2. The best way to get a quality sound system is to take the time and do your homework, and match everything up. NEVER crank your amp, yada yada yada. It's all been said on here too many times already. Just know what you are doing with it, and if you don't know anything about a sound system, take it to a shop and let the professionals handle it.
