[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8296245, member: 650438"] actual watts of any given head unit is no more then 12 if your lucky. Scosche is one of those cheaper brands that use CCA rather then real copper and they do not even try to compensate for that by making the wire oversized. The head unit is the most important thing in a sound system. Its the source of your music and the brains that determine how well the rest of your system performs. Even if you added better amps and better speakers, your stuff will still sound like [COLOR=black]****[/COLOR] because of your head unit. To even get a proper bass response from your door speakers, you have to turn your car door into a speaker enclosure by sealing up the huge gaping holes along with the use of proper high pass filters and ample power with a clean signal going through them. as for your sub It could be the pre-out voltage from your head unit is too weak and you have to crank the volume up along with the gains to get any output out of the subs, but by doing so your risking a lot of clipping and distortion that is sometimes not audible to the ear.
