[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 898467, member: 561023"] I will assume that if your 6x9s are not amped then they are wired directly to the speaker outputs on the head unit. They are not actually playing without an amp - just not an outboard component amp. The amp inside your head unit is powering them. I've not personally seen your install so I do not know whether you're using the RCA inputs or speaker-wire inputs on that Bazooka tube but either way all the input method is doing is bringing the signal to the amp in that tube to be amplified/crossed-over before being sent to the bass driver. Unless you've snaked speaker wire off of the head unit into the tube and connected it directly to the sub in there I can't see any way that the head unit could be powering that sub directly. Much as I hate to say it seeing as it's manufactured in my home state....Bazooka just isn't quality gear. [/QUOTE]
