What are the draw backs to a powered setup?

Little bit of an update, got the door speakers installed today. Also played around with the settings on the head unit. Definitely made a big difference. Sounds a lot better.

they don't have the potential that other set ups do.

Just picked up a kicker 10 powered sub and box from Walmart. It's for my grandfathers geo tracker. $129. Couldn't beat it. Comes with everything to install it including wiring. It's supposedly rated for 100watts rms. But if it sounds decent I'm gonna be picking another one up for my little brothers amc eagle.

Definitely interested in how that turns out.

It doesn't sound to bad. It's something to add a little bass. I don't like how it hooks up through speaker wires. I wish it would hookup with normal rcas.
