Oh I vaguely remember this concept from a few years ago. The consensus on car audio au forums was that they werent as good as a proper sized sub.

thats usualy because its only 6.5" compaired to an 8" or 10". not to meantion a 12" or 15".

im running 2x 10in pioneer subs in a large sealed inclosure(tuned), 2x blaupunkt 6in splits, 2x pioneer 6in 2 ways, JVC head unit 1x kenwood amp 80w x4, and us audio (cheap but good) 4 channel bridged running subs.
basicly same set up was in my exa was running 138Db...(minus 1 amp)
little bit more power now though...but im too old for loud music these days my 30yo ears dont cope well, lol...barely goes over 25 on the volume.
used to have a job 9 years ago installing performance audio... but dont really follow the scene anymore.

i have a pioneer 6850MP, with jaycar 6inch splits in doors, goes quuuite hard!

well i had too . . . to accompany my Alpine DD-Linear splits wid the V-Power MRP-F450 amp, i decided to det a sub have baught a Focal 27H sub . . . muzic needs d lowz guyz!! fulliiiiii . . . although the bass of the exhaust cancels any attempt made by the sub unless i have it cranked, which aint happening . . . so when idleing at the lights its nice

[ScienceVR6]

i had that trouble when i had my old exhaust. i had to have the stereo cranking to here it! now i can just listen to it, even with out the subs, (for the time being)

...my Alpine DD-Linear splits wid the V-Power MRP-F450 amp

Top end alpine splits with their bottom rung amp?

[KI11Z]

lol, wat! the next step would be the V12 F545 for $800, i cant use the PDX series cuz its 4ch amp is too powerful and priced at $900!. . . So I think my MRP-450 V-Power amp for $470 is just fine . . .

There is NO SUCH THING AS TOO POWERFUL.
The higher the rating of the amp, the less gain you have to use to get a normal level, threfor the amp has to do less work, and you get a cleaner signal. If i could afford it, i'd give every speaker 500w rms.

Power isnt the only thing either. Higher grade amps offer better signal quality, which gives out better sound quality. You would notice a biiiig difference upgrading!

Big amps running lazy is also better then little amps revving their balls off!
