    Is that equating for the loss on the magnet?

    Phil got it. :thumbsup:

    Im running that alpine pdx 5 channel... 4x100w rms to the doors and 1x500w rms to the sub. Its good clean power too. I think the gain on the amp is like at 20% and it hits hard and clean. Definitely use hardware over software for tunning.

    Not sure what you mean Phil? Care to explain?

    The Probox in my brothers F150 pounds, but I'm a bit weary to get one in my Tacoma as there aren't too many people here on TW that have them...

    I might have to go with just the one 4-channel amp. According to photos probox's website it doesnt look like the amp mounts to the box anywhere, so I would have to put the amps under the front seats (along with the amp for my doorspeakers). Man car audio gets expensive!

    My eclipses tuning capabaility is bar none when it congress to the final adjustments. What I was getting at is that I did not use the factory crossovers for my focal 3-ways.
