[QUOTE="zako, post: 8009766, member: 629735"] You can certainly upgrade the amplifier and see how it goes. Alpine Type-X are not very efficient subwoofers. If you don't get a good SPL, then you may need to replace the subwoofer. Instead of one 12 inch subwoofer, consider two more efficient 10 inch subs. That's a bit more cone area. Sonicelectronix is having a sale on RE Audio SE/X10 subwoofers with power handling of around 600watts a piece right now. Beware that MRX-M110 is supposedly implemented internally as a 2 channel amplifier bridged, so running it with 2ohm sub is like running individual channels at 1ohm. Here lies its key to high wattage rating. An amplifier like Soundstream TN1.1200D would probably deliver nearly the same amount of power running at 2ohm while using less current. [/QUOTE]
