I wanted the Kenwood subs because they have a range of 40 to 500. This is just like the Kicker SSMB 8. I wanted a sub that had great mid-base. I plan on adding a 10" JL Audio Subwoofer in a corner mount made of fiber glass down the road. Maybe this summer. I played Pearl Jam's Yellow Ledbetter today. The subs are definitely cranking but the seats aren't really vibrating at all. The sound is amazing at 75%. I think I hit the blending of mid-base with the front stage & under-seat subs perfectly.
Happy that you like it! And that is all that really matters. With the JL corner sub are you going with the 10w3 or the 10w6? Anything over 500w is too much for the w3 but the w6 eats it up!
The alpine amp I have officially speaking will do 150 rms at 4ohm & 250 rms at 2ohm. However, I think I stated earlier that the alpine amps are rated much higher, after they are tested at the factory before they are shipped out. Mine was tested at 106watts at 2ohm when officially it was rated at 60.

The 10" JL Audio sub I was thinking about for the driver's side corner is the JL Audio 10W1v3-4 10".
