powering speaker

would an amp with 75w rms x 4 @ 4ohms be adequate to power......

Infinity kappa perfect 6.1 (component) rms 100w max power 400w
and
Infinity kappa 693.5i (6x9) rms 110w max power 330w

Or would I need more juice to em?

Thanks guys

Should be fine, but what is the quality of the amp? Ie: what brand?

Amp wattage

I tell this to every one...amps are tested at full gain....I always try to get a little higher wattage just to keep my gains down. The less you have increase your gain the cleaner and less distorted teh signal will be to your speakers. That's my two sense. Personally I hope that nobody's runnin their amps at full gain.

Sorry AZN2DMAX, but flame me all you want. I'm guess I must be dumb as a door ****, but could you explain a little more on what you mean?

So...if I have those speakers, should I go 100w rms x 4 @ 4ohms then?

Thanks again,
