typical stock reciever units come with 150-200 watts total power, divide by 4 channels and you have 50 watts per channel max. good luck trying to power 8" subs on 50watts... yeah, get a small amp, dual channel 4ohm 100-200watts per channel.

and 50watts max typically means between 18-22 watts rms. definitely not enough to drive a subwoofer.
