28-05-10, 16:25 GMT+10#24 You could buy a 4 channel amp. Run the front splits of the deck. Run the 6x9's off the amp and use the sub on the amp(parallel).
4 channel amp
Channel 1 & 2 = pair of 6x9's
Channel 3 & 4 = one subwoofer(parallel)
You can do this as long as your amp has a low pass filter.
You should have a switch on your amp where you can choose between high pass/range, mid pass/range & low pass/range.

I havent got the 6x9s yet but when i do i will buy some half decent ones that will probably be the same power as the sub. Cheers

28-05-10, 18:08 GMT+10#28 This would be a good buy. I was just looking at JB HiFI stores and their's none located in Bairsdale. So your next best bet is E-bay, at least their cheap.
Plus with this amp being the same model allows for the correct frequency output from your deck.
