    i wired them in with the dash and tweets for around 175-225 watts per ch for channels 1-2. these are crossed over higher for more midrange. 250ish and up

    ch 3-4 run the polks in the factory spots crossed over lower for midbass around 80hz and up.

    it is noticeably louder and i love it!!! sounds great.

    so if you go by ED thats 175 x 2 @ 2Ω on ch 1-2 and 100 x2 @4Ω on ch's 3-4.

    550 watts up front to 8 speakers talk about head room! and its pretty distortion free to boot.

    50 x 2 to the rear and 500-600 to the subs.

    also i should note i was messing with the xovers and i was running the polk 6.5s as just midbass and they were drowned out by the mtx's.

    so i am running them hi pass but just lower and now the mids are nice and louder so i dont have to crank the volume like before.

    at 30 on the vol is like it was on 35 or so and i didnt even raise the gains. i actually lowered the gain on ch 1-2 running the 3 speakers. tons of head room.

    i have the box pushed forward all the way to the sill plate. so its within 3in of the tail gate. it made a huge difference in output. i'm guessing 1~1.5 db's at least.

    i have a piece of mdf wedged behind the box and amp so it isnt going anywhere. i saving that space for a batt or 2 or 3.


    i have enough mdf to frame out some support for the dead space to the right of the box and the rear to hold up some weight of what ever i put on top of it. most likely just groceries.
