[QUOTE="misfit138, post: 6887885, member: 611275"] Certain things come into play, man. The sub I showed you can only be wired to 1 or 4 ohms. You'll either need a monoblock amplifier that's 1 ohm stable or a multi channel amp, like the DSC4125, that can be bridged to produce power @ 4 ohms. Some amplifiers produce the same amount of power regarless of impedance, but they tend to be expensive (JL Audio slash series and Alpine PDX). To be honest, the DSC4125 is the amp to get. You'll want to upgrade your door speakers at some point and with the dsc4125 you'll already have the power on tap. Seriously, $170 is NOT too much to pay for an amplifier. You really need to think about what you're getting yourself into, man. Car audio is not cheap, even if you're shooting for something modest. Extremely inexpensive equipment is usually cheap for a reason. And we haven't even talked about wiring. Decent wiring isn't cheap either... [/QUOTE]
