I'm putting about 250 max watts out. The sub is primarily for driving bass for when i crank my metal, to pound out the lows when i'm playin rap, and to bring out the bass guitar when i'm listening to country. If i understand the two correctly I would most likely put myself in the SQL catagory as i love to crank it up regularly.
My old sub was an American Pro(600watts rated,but would reach its limits with a 250watt amp

) I got for free.
I thuroughly apologized for my noob-ness in this area of things.
