The watts that you are speaking of are RMS which is a continuous measurement. But, it is possible that you could have an instantaneous transient burst of 500 or possibly even more watts that could easily damage or fry/blow a driver.

So what you are saying is someone would have it turned up so loud that it might spike in the sound track & it could damage the speaker driver & this person does not care about there hearing ! Or there is A chance in A trillion that there is A spike in power to cause this when again the volume is to loud !
