How would these speakers run(considering 6.5 components in doors and 6x9's in back) off a Pioneer unit only. I cant do a 4 channel amp just yet, is it worth investing in

@FKNhostile187 I generally do not recommend using the Polk DB speakers (especially the component models) without an aftermarket amplifier. While these speakers are very efficient, their higher minimum recommended wattage (no less than 10 watts RMS on the components) means they will not perform well off the lower wattage from an aftermarket stereo. Feel free to call for additional assistance: 800.315.0030--Crutchfield

could you tell me about the polk pa660.4. on a set of db651 and db461 plate speakers.

@Outsida2K I’m not familiar with the Polk PA660.4 as it isn’t a model we currently carry or that we have carried in the past. I would recommend that you give Polk a call at 1-800-377-7655 for assistance with questions on that model.

hi um i put some Polk Audio 4.5 or some thing like that with 6x9 db sires and i have them running off of a amp.. but the smaller speakers i have running off a the deck and sound like they are blown is 200 watts to much for them because i dont know maybe if they are getting to much or to little?

@13andrew13hurtado

Well, first, the head unit is only giving them about 20 watts each of continuous power. And they could use more power, and some bass blockers. You don't want them trying to reproduce full frequency. Take the bass out with bass blockers and they will sound better, and give them more power if you still want them louder and clearer,

We have bass blockers at Crutchfield.

@jamieblond1 the pa660.4 is a 4 channel amp from polk, not speakers... good joke though. Anyway if outsida looks at this again if you want proper power to your speakers you want about 75-108%rms per channel from the amp. So take the watts rms of the speaker multiply buy .75 and you have the lower end of the range1.08 and you have your upper end, I wouldnt recommend running less than this to your speaker.

@Outsida2K Yes I could, and I will.....Polk pa660.4 are stereotypical stereo speakers.

could you tell me about the polk pa660.4.

db651 standard model are good speakers. Don't expect deep bass, but decent mid-bass.
