[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 8281236, member: 628688"] It's 18W per channel at 4 ohms and roughly 30W per channel at 2 ohms. That is real power, not inflated values. I think you're drastically underestimating the quality of new speakers in your Subaru as well as not understanding the massive benefits that come from tuning with MS-8. That's understandable, on both accounts, because 1) DSP is very difficult to truly understand without hearing the difference for yourself 2) you may have heard people call DSP a "bandaid" fix, as many old school car audio guys feel this way 3) car audio branded speakers have massive power ratings, and advertising makes us believe you have to have big power to get good sound 4) some factory speakers truly are terrible, but that is not always the case, as I was mentioning in my previous reply The MS-8 route sets you up for success in any future upgrades. When you replace the speakers you retune MS-8 and you'll be ahead of 99% of others running the same speakers. [/QUOTE]
