Regardless of peoples opinion about Lanzar, I have a Lanzar VIBE268 Amplifier, 1 x 2000 Watts Max at 4 Ohms Bridged, & a 12" Lanzar OPTI1222D 900 Watts RMS/1800 Watts Peak & they sound Great. But i was wanting to know What the chances are that could blow the subwoofer, & whats the best way to avoid it?

Did you set the gains properly?

Ignore the "watts max" amd "watts peak," they are useless numbers.

I had adjusted it & it seems to sound ok, but i can tell its a little distorted. Should i set my deck on Flat & just adjust through the amp?

Yes. Here's a recent description of how to set gains.
