[QUOTE="Atimm693, post: 3137628, member: 572164"] You should get less distortion if you run say 30 RMS speakers, a speaker with closer rms to the rms to the HU should render better results (less distorted, louder, better sounding overall). A 70 rms speaker will most likely distort easier because of the lack of clean power. You can get away with it, but you run a higher chance of distorion and or clipping from the HU. Running an amp should definetely lessen distortion and get louder. Much cleaner power. For picking out speakers just stay away from junky brands (legacy, pyramid, pyle etc.) and stay with the better stuff (pioneer, rainbow, mb quart, id, cdt, AA, and a/d/s.) [/QUOTE]
