A WORD ON DISTORTION
Most speaker damage occurs as a result of amplifier
distortion also known as “Clipping”. Clipping occurs
when an amp is driven beyond its maximum rated
output. This kind of distortion can be hard to hear unless
you know what to listen for. Any time you hear a harsh
ear piercing sound at hi volume your amp is probably
clipping.
