I had a question, i recently replaced my stock speakers with 250w 61/2 xplods in the fron and 400w 6-9 xplods in the rear, am i capable of blowing them with just an aftermarket head unit at 45w x4
DISTORTION can kill speakers ....Even underpowered that much ...Sony also overrates power handling on those fairly heavy ...A TRUE 400watt amp will fry those 6X9's
I think I might have miss read Bad Venge's post anyway. He might not have thought that you had an amp. He was just saying if you decided to get an amp to combat distortion, that a 400 would kill your speaks because Sony lies about their handling capabilities.
But you should be ok. If you start turning it up, and it starts to sound distorted, turn it down, and don't go up that high anymore.

Mod List. Um WAY too many to fit on here. But the engine can handle about 800HP
you can still have distortion at low volume levels, your going to want an amp to push those properly. If you can find and amp that has clean power and a high s/n level, you should be fine.
