The allusion to "Peak" (maximum excursion; Xmax is the "safe" value, but the physical limit is higher?) was relative to "whatever is the declared power" of the sub, not to *how much absolute power*.
Also, isn't the actual displacement not proportional to di/dt of the current going through the VC? I had read somewhere JBL licked that problem in SPL subs by going 'servo'.
