i have a bud who uses premier on other ppl's systems & told me they actually take 1000wrms 4 real . Recently he told he hooked up a 1400wrms MMATS amp on 1 premier & it took it like 4 like 45mins b4 it died . Mmats amps actually put out more than rated so u know . I never heard a premier up close so i can't say if its sound quality will be good but their reg pioneer lines sure do SUCK ! cause i have 2 12s 306 & SQ is so darn poor imo ..........
