[QUOTE="SlowPoke, post: 6188955, member: 613030"] Thanks for your input. I quoted myself because I was looking for an EQ with those spec's and I'm not changing the HU. Agree, pretty vague if I were looking for a new HU but pretty specific for an EQ upgrade. Bridging the Focals would be fine power-wise but am I not adding distortion? I can't remember the arguments for and against bridging from when I was last into car audio! I just don't want to blow a bunch of cash on premium components only to feed them with poor signal. I'll probably throw coaxials in the rear doors and fade in or out just for fill. This is one of the reasons I was looking at the JL 450/4 because it seems like a perfect fit 150/2 front x 75/2 rear. These spec's seem to offer plenty of headroom for a component/coaxial setup without paying for four channals of big power. The downside? Since you can't bridge FR(L)/FR®, only F/R giving you 300/1 front and 150/1 rear. Not a lot of flexibilty. [/QUOTE]
