6.5" 400 watt speakers

does a 6.5" 400 watt speaker have alot of bass or what? lets compare it to a 10" 300-400watt...because i was thinking about putting them in my doors, and if i like them alot putting them in my back as well, would this provide trebble and bass, or what how would the overall sound be?

well... power rating has nothing to do with loundess or the such.. it's just a powerhandeling number...

let's start with what type of speaker? Brand?

are the speakers mid bass or coax? If they are coax, I would not expect too much bass from them...that's not what they are made for. If ya want to get down low on the frequency, go ahead and buy a amp and a sub...like my system...it's for sale
