another comment, I said the amp is not needed in the first post and what I am saying is that the bass prduced at this point without the amp is definatly sufficient for the rest of the stock system. I am not a expert or anything but I like my mustic to sound good. I am thinking with the amp the bass will be gheto. but with adjustments sound quality may be inproved but not sure if it will be enough to jsutify having the amp. we will see.
oh I cranked it up and my son was down the street and he was like DAd that sounds great, I could here the entire sond and the bass, its was not like the boom chang chang etc that you hear at the red lights. he was impressed. I thought it was pretty funny that he recognized clarity vs gheto
