1. Is there some kind of ratio of power to balance your sub and front speakers? I plan on getting
a sub rated up to 250 watts rms and
the components are rated up to 75 watts rms.
2.
Is this amp capable of powering both the speakers and the sub, or would I need a second amp?
2b. If it is not powerful enough, I take it I would need 2 amps, one for the speakers and one for the amp. Would this create too large a strain on a stock electrical system (battery and alternator?)
I really hope the original amp could run both, because then this is definitly within my budget. If I need a second amp, the components will have to wait...
Possibly,
an amp like this would be enough to power everything, thus eliminating the need (and space) for 2 amps, although the price is similar to the cost of 2 amps.
Even the single more powerful amp would push me over my budget...
3. Im looking for decent SQ, not SPL. I mainly listen to indie rock (bright eyes, death cab for cutie, the faint, q and not u). I don't need earth shattering bass, but I have no idea what 100 or 150 watts to the sub would sound like versus 225 or 250.
If I ran 225 or 250 to the sub, and it was too much bass for me, how do I turn the bass (or its power) down? I'm almost embarrassed to ask that one...
