Boss subs and ampse were awful :
Never run oval speakers and a sub in the same airspace. The volume of air moved by the sub can - and will - do significant damage to the spider of the 6x9 speaker, not to mention fouling your sound stage right up.

ditch the 6x9 idea right now!
and buy a pioneer TS-W305C instead.. much better for the money. or see if you can buy a RE SE12 second hand, that is a bad ass pimp sub, u need a good amp to run it at its best tho.
good starter system is a simple one, good front speakers, 4 channel amp, sub.. done..
also if ur a bit of a streetbass head then make a ported box, otherwise if ur a SQ head, keep it sealed.
1^ft sealed should do you.
ported do 1.7^ft tuned to 35hz for alround bass
or for streetbass do 2.2 tuned to 33hz.
As Onnie says, the enclosure you choose is important.
A poorly designed and constructed enclosure will make even the best subwoofer sound poor, whereas a budget sub in a well designed enclosure will perform reasonably well.
Remember...unless you are a real basshead (as in IDBL level), you don't need kilowatts of power to make a system sound good.
It helps...but its far from essential.

why not have a full range like me :D
a set of tweets (where the old front speakers where)
a set of splx 6x9's
a set of kenwood 6x9's
a set of Jvc 6x9's
2xJBL 10" Subs
1x Splz 15" Subs
Subs running off 2 channel Splx amp
6x9's runnin on 2 2 channel Jbl amps
AND I WILL SAY, IV HAD MORE TROUBLE OF THE JBL STUFF THEN THE SPLX
SPLX is good stuff, as long as you keep it cool
hi, just wanna know what size amp i need to get. i wanna get a 400 watt 12"sub, and also run a dual bassbox which is 200 watts. my headunit has an internal amplifier. please let me know what size amp i need to run it all, cheers.
just thought of something. as ill be running my bassbox off of the stereo, ill only be running the sub through the amp, i wont actually be running the bassbox aswell through the amp, so im guessing that ill only need a 400 watt or higher amp for a 400 watt sub? the bass box dont come into the amp thing? coz its just comin from the speaker connections of the stereo.
the bass box will have a built in amp wont it
hiyo am also lookin into the splx stuff manly the subz and ampz
dont like the look off the 6x9z (sorri splx)
so are there medium subz alryt( i think they are the 600 watts not the red ones but the whiteish siverish onez)
one just thinkin of gettin one of them in a well designed box probly sealed and the 500 watt splx amp to run it
wot do u lot tink
pussy
