    I am wondering about how car sound sytems work...what I mean is...

    For example you have
    200 watt cd player
    800 watt amp
    does that mean you can have
    one 1000 watt subwoofer

    can you have a larger woofer?

    any explanation or link to explanation would be appreciated.

    2 - 1000 watt amps
    4 12 in'' subwoofers
    that hold 600 watts each

    NO! the 200w cd player is split 4 ways for your speakers. Some of them have a sub output, but not many. You will have 800W total for your subwoofer (which is a ton, unless its peak wattage, and a cheap subwoofer).

    I have a 350W RMS Alpine amp running two 12" subs.

    dude, you need an amplifier to get any kind of "bump" or a high level of volume! your stereo itself won't cut it
