That's a very good point. I doubt that any of the "bashers" of the factory MTX audio system thought of that before proclaiming that 200watt setup would be far too weak.

At .35watt ohms each, that would be the equivalent of .7 watts total ohm load wired in series. I am currently running a single DVC Alpine Type R 10 4ohm wired in parallel for a total of 2 ohm load at 500W.

Comparing the factory option MTX setup at .7 ohms at 200w, that would be comparable 500w setup with 2 10's running at 2ohm. So I can see how this system would sound pretty good!
