Would it be safe to Push a 10" Kicker L7 with 1500 RMS daily?

no i would not exceed that much over the kicker rated rms for long periods of time or on a daily basis. you will melt the voice coils, at the very least you would weaken the sub and start to lose sound quality at a rapid rate. eventually sending them to the graveyard. you could get away with 1000rms 2 each but for how long i dont know.
 
I have two kicker l7 10's, and an amp that pushes out 1650 RMS x2 channels at 2 ohms (so each Kicker would be gettin 1650 rms). Would that damage the Kicker's over time? They are said to only handle 600 Watts rms each, but i've seen people pushing almost 3000 RMS on one kicker L7 10. My amp could also push out 1000 RMS x2 channels at 4 ohms (I would just have to wire the subs differently). Would that be safer? I just want to get the most out of my subs without damaging them. Please help asap. Adam
