i didnt want to hook up my amp because the amp i have puts out to much power so it is running from the wires for the 6x9's looks stock which is good.

Interesting. A speaker that requires a baffle in an infinite baffle setup hits hard. 23 watts rms never sounded better i bet :~). I have some 8's running off of 225 watt rms and they don't "hit hard", i must be doing something wrong.

You just dropped them into the 6x9 hole? I hope you installed them properly (baffle, fully sealed, etc.) What does your amp put out (RMS not max/peak/if lightning strikes power)? And listen to n8ball2013, 6x9s sound terrible to begin with, let alone as the heart of your front stage.

The head unit/amp puts out power, speakers don't "pull" it, the only thing that would kill the head unit is running it at a lower impedance than it was designed for.

So you're running 2 10" subs with about 60 watts each, full range, in a regular bandpass box sprinkled with fairy dust? If it was that easy I would have been world champion when I was 8 with my electric Jeep. Sorry dude, but what you're claiming is physically impossible.

huge diffrence between a dedicated amp and a headunits power output. youd be getting closer to 200 watts where as the original poster is getting more like 12 watts per speaker big big diffrence, can't even really compare the two.

that right there makes me KNOW that they havent a @!#$ clue what they are talking about. just because a box is big, doesnt make it any better. if that was true, then putting those 2 tens in free air in your vehicle would net the highest spl reading ever!

unfortunatly they are wrong, and thats not always true.

yes with a little cutting the dropped right in, just sitting there as if they came that way.

and i didnt mean they bang like 12's or anything i meant they hit hard for running on stock, and i had 2 12's and ran them off of a 320 watt amp didt put full power they hit hard... but the box had a lot of room for air....
