4 Channel Amp System. Expert advice needed

[suleman36 10+ year member]

Im getting ready to do a install in my 00 honda civic sedan.

Here is what i have :

Pioneer DEH-P780MP

Eclipse PA5422

Phoenix Gold RSD 65cs

Still need to decide on a single 4 ohm or dvc 2 ohm sub 10 or 12 to run of the rear channels of eclipse 4 channel amp bridged.

This is mostly a budget setup for a daily driver. I drive 45 miles to and from work. Almost 100 miles a day and im getting bored with my factory system.

I saw this old JL 10w6v1 in a sealed box at the pawn shop for $60 and was wondering if it whould be a good match for my amp ?

Any better options ? I prefer SQ mostly but i want it to be loud and clean for all types of music. Mostly hiphop and rock stuff. I usually like the sound a of a sealed box depending on the sub. Perhaps a IDQ or JL 12w3v2 or ?

If i do go this route with everything run off the eclipse 4 channel, will i still have the ability to fade from front to rear. I will run the stock rear speakers off the HU power.

So run 1 rca cable from the amp to the HU front preout and for the speakers and 1 from the amp to the sub preout on the hu ?

Let me know if all this makes sense. Thanks

Yes if you have the front rca from the HU going to the channels running the speakers on the amp and the sub rca going to the channels running the sub and the rear speakers running off of the headunit you will still be able to fade from front to rear.

Thank you. Appreciate it.

Now which sub to run off the rear channels bridged. I should get about 240 watts rms @ 4 ohm

What do you recommend ?

JL 12w3v2 or ?
