Has anyone. Had these up to 800 watts

Seriously, this will not handle 800 watts. Just stick on the RMS instead of the peak power.

The wattage listing on these is not correct at all. They are ok for replacing factory speakers, but if you put 800 to them they would pop in a second.

They can take 120 watts straight out. I haven't pushed them pass that level.

Is that RMS? What volume level? Since these are efficient they should provide very loud output before utilizing anywhere near 150 watts. I have 95 RMS and never max out.

75w will do great on these! mine are about that and they have a very clear strong sound at all frequencies. I have 4 and they vibrate my rear view mirror a little bit even.

i have used three 100 watts and haven't had a problem. i did have a couple broken when i got them though. i think they say not for sale in the USA because they are not allowed to sale them here anymore. I feel it is a shame we can't have the bulbs we want and like here. Mine do not say NOT FOR USE IN THE USA. Someone is getting a nice kick back making us use these newer bulbs that are horrible looking and working. i hate the way they dim after a bit of use and they are just plain awful. I am not an expert of course, but i think they say not for sale in USA because of the reason i gave above.

I guess it depends on how much clean power you are sending to them. I am feeding them about 100 watts each. These are the best "6x8" series I have personally heard! The tweeters sound like the vaunted "PRS" series tweeter and get very loud but not bright! The woofers really "thump hard" which is why I bought them! Go audition some and if you can find someone who has these I think you will be pleasantly surprised!

I run 400 watts into them. Crown xls 800 amp. Now and then smoke the protection fuse. But they get loud. Got four of them.

Never tried but I assume you could if they fit. They would not exceed the wattage limit

I have never had a burn-out (yet). Are you sure they are burned out? Have you tried them on another socket?

I bought a couple about two years ago. And they're great I hooked them up to an 1500 watts amplifier along with two other speakers and they sound great

Use the wattage until sound gets distorted or unpleasant. Cranking them up too high will definitely blow them.

I am on my second set. The first ones lasted 2 years winter and all, even when I had them almost 200% over powered. I'm sure they will last much longer with the reccomended wattage.

I feed them 75 watts from a fosgate amp each. They can handle 100 fine too. They just try to take my doors apart over 75w.

I'm running mine on my stock OEM amp and haven't had any problems. I may not be the best person to answer this since I'm not putting a lot of power through them.

I have them hooked up to 2 1200 watt speakers. The amp only can be hooked up via speaker wire tho

I use these on my patio outside. I've been using 200 watts and 50 feet of speaker cable, they seem to work just fine, I did add a 10" powered sub woofer to enhance the bass. I can't say I've pushed them to their max.. I have neighbors that I like. the speakers work for me in my application.
