Then, to my chagrin, I literally COULDN'T hear the subwoofer. As it turns out when you decide to go with an amp that is less powerful, that means that the amp cannot charge the magnet as well, which gives you less ability to move air/create soundwaves/hear bass. My recommendation is to find an amp that matches the max ratings for both speakers because, if you do that, you can always adjust the bass down, but if you go cheap/weak you can't turn the bass up! Just my .02
So any recomendations on what to get?

So any recomendations on what to get? Im not going to spend over 250 and preferabally around 200 or below
