An amp can only put out so much power without distortion. A speaker, say, a subwoofer, will utilize whatever the amp is able to put out. So the question is not will a speaker fry an amp, but whether the amp will blow the speaker. (Not, in your example)

Any speaker, though, needs a certain amount of power to begin to drive it to listenable levels. High-efficiency speakers like bass-reflex speakers need only 5 or 10 watts for loud levels, while a low-efficiency speaker may not even make a squeek until they are fed with 10 to 15 watts of power.

sO will this set up work or not?

When connecting a dual voice coil subwoofer to a mono amp what is the best way to connect the subwoofer to the amplifier?

To connect a dual voice coil subwoofer to a mono amplifier, the best method is to wire the voice coils in parallel if the amplifier supports the resulting impedance. This configuration will lower the overall impedance, allowing the amp to deliver more power to the subwoofer. If the amp cannot handle the lower impedance, you can wire the coils in series, which will increase the impedance but reduce the power output. Always check the specifications of both the subwoofer and amplifier to ensure compatibility.

Will a 1600 watt amp blow a 450 watt sub woofer?

Well, it depends. When you look at subwoofers, it will say RMS and peak. Now, let's talk about the "RMS" and "peak" on the subwoofer. The RMS is the real power. That's what were gonna be looking for. The RMS is the continuous power design for the subwoofer to operate. The peak is the maximum power the subwoofer can handle. Obviously, were not gonna be running the subwoofer with its peak power because that will decrease the life of your subwoofer. Running too much power or too little can damage your subwoofer. It's also important to run it by it's RMS rating. So, I don't know if that 450 watt is the RMS or peak. I'm assuming that it's the RMS. As long as you don't bridge it, it should be fine.

Can you use car subwoofer with your home stereo?

You need to make sure the impedance matches or you will blow you amplifier! It would be best to replace it with the same brand as the speakers, feed it with a digital cable. There won't be a problem of overloading your amplifier.
