[QUOTE="J3adSeed, post: 6290835, member: 614361"] I'm putting a set of JL ZR650-CSI's in my 370z, no rear speakers, and a JL 10w6v2 in a sealed box. SQ is my priority for this system. I currently already own a JL 300/2 amp and a small pioneer amp that is rated 40w x 2 RMS, though this might be underrated some. I could just bridge the JL amp for the sub, and run the components off the pioneer amp at no additional cost to me, but do you think the components are getting enough power? Do you think it is worth the additional cost to add a JL 500/1 for the sub and use the 300/2 for the components? Doing that would add much more power to the fronts, which i'm wondering if that would result in better midbass, and much more power to the sub, beyond what is even spec'd as optimal, not that I think its too much. But its either 380 watts total system, or 800 watts total system, quite a difference, and then I have to be concerned with if a 4 gauge power wire will be enough, will i need a capacitor, etc. Any opinions on if you think its worth the cost and effort to add the JL 500/1 or will the resulting difference be minimal? SQ is the main goal. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
