[QUOTE="budd1e_lee, post: 6728484, member: 620223"] So I'm now thinking I'm gonna do the new Pioneer X902, although it will take some work to make it fit since factory is din and a half. Talked to a shop near by that said they could do it no problem. I'm also thinking I wanna do decent fronts, with an amp, and bridge the rear channels of the amp to run a couple of 8" subs. Then just use deck power to run the rears as fill. Really just trying to keep the cost from getting out of hand, at least on the initial install, I can always upgrade later. So I was thinking a couple of 8W3v3 of the 8ohm variety running off the bridged rear channels of the JL HD600/4. Should give me 300w into the subs, with a damping factor of 300 into the 4ohms, JL says the sweet spot is 150-175ish watts. Anybody think this is a bad idea? Again I'm not looking for high output, just good clean sound. I don't like to know there are subs, I want them to blend seamlessly.
