    How are you going to power the things.
    How are the speakers/components powered.
    Will the amp only power the subs?

    Also the PX300.4 is amazing but not cheap.
    JBL 1004 does its job really well.

    The JBL 1004 will not play the JBL Subs.
    This is because the subs are rated at 2 ohms while minimum bridged impedance of JBL 1004 is 4 ohms.

    So you should better look at JBL GTo 7001.
    Its amazing to power these 2 subs with a bit reduced gains.

    Costs around 13/14

    @abhinav i just confirmed from the local hyderabad dealer of jbl and he says that the 1004 is more than enough to power the jbl dual subs,
    he said it would eaisly power 2 jbl 1200watt subs

    @ Napster.
    I know it will power but not to full potential
    Local installers have little knowledge about the impedance thing.
    The JBL would not wire in bridged mode at 2 ohm and would clip
    Its better to get JBL GTO 7001.
    Its around 13-14000 grey market without bill.

    It is official JBL product and would rock the 2 subs.

    dude, in a hatch you dont need to power those 2 subs to the fullest beacuse, one sub powered to the fullest wil shake the hatc, specially the small m800, lol

    You arent getting my point.
    The sub will clip as the amp will not be able to handle the 2 ohm load which the sub wants and would clip it.
    leave alone low power.

    6-7k for both of for 1 pair.

    JBL's are really bang for the buck.
    The illusion electras are really great components if you can spend 7k only on fronts.
    You will surely love them.

    6-7k for the front is a bit expensive as of now , i dont mind spending that amount but as of nowi need to replace my windshield and get xenon and other stuff too, so i fixed some 6k for the speakers, or ill delay the speakers part and get components directly
