[QUOTE="arpel, post: 8874330, member: 691208"] Hello, I have no experience/knowledge of car audio, but I recently bought a Golf MK5 in which two owners ago, someone created a setup in the trunk of a JBL CS 60.4 amp + two Mac Audio Revolution X 20.3 Speakers. The speakers in the trunk only turn on at a volume of about 30, work well up to ~45, and at anything above that, up to 63 (max on the radio) they start to "fart". What's the most likely cause? Does that setup even make any sense? I found that the speakers have rms/peak power listed as 100/400W. Wouldn't this amp be too weak for that? Or could the problem lie somewhere else? [/QUOTE]
