    Default will a rockford fosgate 200w rms bridged amp blow/damage 110w rms alpine speakers?

    im looking at buying a Rockford Fosgate - Punch Series 4 channel Amplifier - P4004
    its rmw ratings are:
    50 Watts x 4 @ 4-Ohms
    100 Watts x 4 @ 2-Ohms
    200 Watts x 2 @ 4-Ohms Bridged

    i want to bridge them for my 110w rms each alpine type r splits.
    will the overpowered amp damage or blow the speakers when played loud? can i get my gains correct so the amp doesnt use all 200w rms of power? or will it be fine?
    thanks

    Music is dynamic, it wouldn't matter whether you had 100 rms or 2500 rms going to a pair of speakers.

    The only way you would damage a speaker is by deliberately over driving it to the point where you would melt a coil or tear a surround.....
