A true system should have an outboard amplifier for all component speakers... I know people run fronts and backs off their decks all the time but you're sharing this tiny tiny power coil in the unit over all channels, and also causing more heat inside the unit.  Even an external 25w x 2 amp would be better than any 50 w per channel deck that I've ever seen.

e:  underpowering speakers is always worse than overpowering them.  You can always turn the gain or volume down...


my front are 35/70 and backs are 75/150
was figuring using the p-400 or p-500
but i'm actually starting to think i have already damaged my 4x6's in the front off the kenwood HU im using, i notice (i dont know if i imagine it or not) like the material on the tweeter rattling

Voice coil may be separating... underpowering to the point of high distortion is due cause to blow tweeters.

i got a dual 10" box now, seems to be louder and you can feel it more now, but i'd almost say it too much space for the sub, i'll try to post some picture up later on

Doesn't fit in the spot most of those cars have for subs? my stepdad had two 10's in his camaro and they came flush with the floor and he had a little cover that covered the back window when he wanted. shit hit hard too.
