Door panel Smoking. JL Smoked too.

When you bridge an amp, you're also raising the distortion ration at the same time. The salesman lied to you. They'll do that. The box would have said something like 150 watts, but that's peak for the pair. RMS each would be more like 35 watts. Depending on what kind of enclosure the speakers wanted, would have depended on what x-over point that they would have liked and would have made a major difference on how much clean power they could have handled. When in doubt, underpower a little rather than over power at all.

Yes, well, the "Bridge the TC4004 for ***** & giggles" experiment is over. Put everything back the way it was. Lesson learned.
72wrms per channel is fine. I'm simply not willing to risk the UP6 components because they sound so darn good the way they are, and thats to MY tired ears. I can only imagine what they sound like to someone with good hearing.
The "JL" speakers i took out were NOT JL. They are from company called TMA which is supposedly owned by JL according to the intarweb. I got these a few months ago when I didn't know JL from JBL or JWL or any other damned thing.
There is a sticker on the bottom of the speaker stating "150 watts rms".
The magnet is heat treated blue in some areas...that would be me.
Next time i get out to the garage I will post pics of the sticker and magnet for laughs.
