ah i see for mids/highs I am running a 300/4 amp, all around I have MB Quart components (higher quality ones up front), all channels receiving 50watts RMS I think what you described is pretty much what I am going for, I never really plan to have a time where I plan to just turn up my subs and completly overpower my front stage, but I'd like solid punch in my bass I think the pure SQ is what I want, If I ever need extra bass on a song I can always just turn up the EQ, so ya thanks for explaining it
