[QUOTE="<Plater>, post: 214"] I wouldn't recommend running subs with a cheap legacy amp. I have a what they call a 600W legacy amp really more like 30Wx4ch if lucky but it runs my front components and rear 6x9's fine. Most amplifiers sound just fine untill you run them to a point where a cheap design such as the legacy starts to create harmonic distrotion because the design doesn't correct for nonlinearities in the amplifier stages such as in higher quality amplifiers. i would suggest a resonable priced higher quality amp and one sub 10" or 12" most likely 10" because it is in a small cab and you are looking for some low end not earthshaking bass. Something in the 50W RMS to 100W RMS range would be fine for the amp. But remeber that the above rating is a true measurement. The higher the quality amplifier the more likely the power is stated correctly. The better quality the sub the better it will sound at high power levels. The same goes for the subs [/QUOTE]
