[QUOTE="Camer138, post: 7911402, member: 637836"] First, I'm a newb at this stuff, hence why I'm asking these questions. I currently have a 4 channel JBL GTO1004 going into JBL P660c components in the front(these are running at 2ohms). I have 2 channels left on my amp which I can bridge at 4 ohms for 320w RMS for a sub. Now here are my questions.. 1. Is it fine to run 2ohm components AND a 4ohm sub with one amp or will running the two different impedences damage something? 2. I mostly listen to fast paced metal, I'm getting a sub for better sound quality in my system, not to boom really loud and drown out the music. I require tight bass response and know I am going with a sealed box but am not sure whether to get an 8" or 10" sub, which would be better for this genre given the amp I am working with? 3. I'd love if you guys could recommend me some subs that might go good with my setup and go with what I want out of my system! Oh, also I drive a Toyota Matrix hatchback, sub will be going behind my seat. budget is $300 for sub, box, cables, and installation.(I get a small discount from retail store prices) [/QUOTE]
