that sub needs a 400 amp amplifier for itself

for a cheap system use the head unit as is to power your speakers
buy a 400 amp mono amp just for the subwoofer

for comparison:
my 58 truk has an arc audio 400w amp 4x100w feeding 4 sets of 5.25'' arc audio component speakers
and an arc audio 1x600w mono amp feeding the single 10'' arc audio sub
it rocks
OK, the reason I mention the above setup is because in my 94 Honda it had the same sub, amp and tweeter setup. Just a different head unit and no rear speakers and it sounded awesome.

But on a side note what's the big difference between the above mention tweeter setup and say some boss ch6530 6.5" 3way speakers
