As far as the rears go,most car audio peeps will tell you not to do this because it ruins the front stage.I have 6.5 Type X's up front and some 6x9 in the rear.To be honest they are not needed.I only run them off of the HU for the rear passengers.I probably wouldnt do it again.

As far as amps go,buy as much as you can afford.For the comps I run 200 watts per channel.Its way to much but I have plenty of headroom.The sound is amazing.Its hard to be brand specific because there is a ton out there.Check the forums there are alot of good deals out there.

For the subs,how do you plan on wiring them?If you are running them at a 4ohm load Id look at some amps that put out about 2000 watts @ 1 ohm.I think the Hifonics amps are very decent and do pretty close to rated power.You can get a 2000 watt amp for probably around 350.00.

Good luck and just make sure you do your homework to make sure youre buying what will worj for you.

You're local. I'd PM Don (Pearl96Max) to see what products he offers.

LOL!! I would not consider Hifonics flea market equipment by any means.Dont get me wrong its not Arc or Audison,but for a "Budget" amp its tough to beat.They are pretty well built amps that will do close to rated powe.In the 300.00 range I dont think you'll find anything better(new not used).

i dont mean to offend any but when i said flea market, i wasnt kidding. you can literally go to 2 flea markets in my area and buy hifonics, rigt next to audiobahn,pyle etc. and idk theres a few other brands i look into.
