109 for the polks x2 the MMats and PRV;s 185 + 120 makes it an 85.00 upgrade and I think it is more than worth it. I didnt see where he mentioned a budget but I have not read all 3 of his threads.

Food for thought the mmats and prv are both 4 ohm normally, presenting a 4 ohm load to each channel of the 700x4 equals ~100W per speaker. The kappas are close to 2 ohm meaning they will see ~175W to each speaker. Ultimately it's your ride and your money enjoy the hunt.

Ok so you're saying the Kappas at 2 ohms would be better? I thought 4 ohms would produce more power than the 2 ohms
