Can anyone tell me if the jl 300/4 amp would be enough to power two sets of the mm6 components and if not what other amps would you reccomend? thanks

    I think that amp is rated at 75 watts x 4; if so that will be fine.

    i'm not sure how a bridge would work on a regulated amp, but if you already have the 300/4 and dont want to just scrap it, you could try briding it and running just 1 set of comps off it... 75x3 = 220 by 2 ... keep the gains down (if u've got a 2 vrms preout - about 30% would do) and those 6.5 components should scream -- i do about 140-150 x 2 on my fronts off two 180/1 amps, and it's a helluva improvement over the 65 by 2 i used to run.

    however kim is right in the long run -- a 'true' 150 x 2 amp would be better than underpowering or bridging a weaker amp up to it... it keeps the thd down, and the device is then working within its means.

    g'luck. :)
