what sort of sony are we talkin about? xploop? personally i wouldnt give any of that a nodd in the desert.
It's a shame that their car audio has built up such a shit reputation because everything else they make (hi-fi's, walkmans) are awesome.
Alpine, Soundstream, Genesis, Focal...all these & many more make Sony look cheap.
Their Xplod gear just doesn't look feel or sound anywhere near on par.

i have a 222w sony xplod amp powering one of my subs nd i think it dus the job well. it was cheap and doesnt get hot when it gets a hammering like some other amps ive had. Ive also got 2x 12" 900w sony xplod subs and they r loud as fuck! (even without an amp) just brought a 1400w amp 2 power them so they should be louder!

how did u power 2 subs without an amp....
Those sony amps are shite, as r the speakers. Compare them to a decent sub and amp combo and u will see wat i mean.
Hoever they are cheap, and if u are on a small budget then they will do the job, as with everything if u want good stuff u have to pay for it.
