Servo subs will not overload or damage themselves.
They simply stop getting louder when the threshold set by the servo is reached. (dynamic compression, which usually starts at the lowest frequencies)
This can be noticeable, but unless your main speakers are very sensitive and/or your main amplifier is very powerful, and you regularly play movies at extremely high levels, it's doubtful that you would ever notice this effect.
My B&W CDM 9NT speakers (90db/w/m) powered by an Adcom 5800 (24-26db/w) can reach very high SPL.
(theoretically 115db on peaks at 1m. I've never measured it, but it plays really friggin' loud).
The Servo-15 does not exhibit any noticeable compression or distortion in this system at maximum levels in a medium sized living room.
High level infrasonic bass, such as in "The Incredibles" DVD, always sounds absolutely effortless, natural and clean.
It's difficult to imagine how the performance of this sub could be meaningfully improved, aside from simply increasing the maximum output.
