By this weekend, I need to be able to explain what sound I am hearing
to someone who isn't a broadcaster or associated with radio / audio in
any way. How can I explain to someone what it sounds like when you
are speaking into a mic -- hooked up to an audio board - and you pin
the needle in the red. You know, you get that high pitched kind of
flat sound ?? I don't know how to explain it to someone who has never
heard what that sounds like?? Can someone suggest an explanation that
would make sennse to non-radio people?? Thanks.
Look up audio clipping, square waves, voice coil failure modes due to
clipped waveform; and like that.

THANKS everybody. I talked with the powers that be today and they
seemed to better understand what I was talking about. Unfortunately
the tweaking will continue next week with company reps by conference
call. So, I'll add these new things too. Thank you all for your
suggestions and descriptions. !!!

Your RMS amplifier power 20Hz-20kHz at 1% THD should exceed the power
ratings of the speaker by 2 to 4 times.
