No prob wit my HU. Kenwood Exelon X969 is what is in the car now.
But im Still using stock speakers.
This is what i plan to do. In my front doors I am gonna run Pioneer TS A1680R 4 way 6 1/2 drivers. They run 2-50w rms and peak is 220w. For the back im gonna run Pioneer TS A6980R 4 way 6X9's
They run 2-80w rms and 350w peak. OK, now for the queston. I am gonna amp these drivers with a 4 channel amp but do I buy my amp to come as close to the max (not the peak rating) rms of the 6 1/2's since they are the lower wattage drivers or what? How big of an amp do i need to have? I understand that a XXw 4 channel amp has to divide that total wattage between 4 channels so Im not sure on how big of an amp to even look for let alone the brand.... but im thinking alpine. AS ALWAYS
I forgot the speakers will be wired at 4 ohms.
But im Still using stock speakers.
