What WILL damage it - is the fact that people who ARE underpowering it tend to turn the head unit and/or amplifier(s) up too loud, causing distortion/clipped signal - which WILL kill a speaker, virtually no matter the power.
10-4, which is why you should be setting your gains with a DMM to whichever is less, the subwoofer or the amplifier RMS rating.
