speakers bottoming out


Just purchased a pair of soliloquy 5.3's and was wondering if someone could explain just why speakers bottom out. Of course this occurs at high volume and under a fairly heavy base attack. What exactly is a speakers rating supposed to tell the owner (i.e. watts recommended) Is it even a problem I wonder?

What are you playing to bottom out the speakers? I have had the 5.3's for several months and have not had this happen. My amp is rated a 100 watts rms. The speakers are supposed to handle 200 watts rms (I think).
