Quality/filters/amp/HU aside....they are actually woofers.

Agree with IKE with the qualification of it meaning non factory system. But, any decent HU is going to put out decent sound without the need for an external amp provided that everything is matched correctly & wired correctly (Ohm's Law followed).

I'm still wondering what the OP is meaning by coax. Could mean something across the pond by here in the US that is the kind of cable we use to run cable TV (among other things).

I might be pointing out the obvious here but a standard RCA style cable is coaxial 2 conducter shielded cable used for low level interconnect from head unit to an amplifier. TV coax is also shielded but has a threaded connecter. They are both 'coax'.
