[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8860808, member: 674149"] The problem as I see it is: You are trying to build a sub setup for the lowest wattage you can possibly find, all because you have an amp that's worth about $50 new. 200w x 1 is nothing. It's not enough power to drive any real sub. You can definitely find lower wattage subs that are in that range, I know kicker has some but why? That amp is not designed for a sub, it's just (technically) capable of a really, low powered one. Do you want a sub or not? You're going to spend more to find one for that low wattage, then you could spend just finding a package deal. If both of those settings you listed are RMS, then you can make it work, and your amp should give you most of what the sub can do. Even that small of a sub, you're going to leave some on the table. Stop wasting your time with the 2ch amp if you want a subwoofer. [/QUOTE]
