If you buy a head unit that is 50w x4, you might spend an extra $30 for one compared to one that isn't.   You can hook up everything you have, try it out, and worst case scenario you spent a few bucks more on a head unit you might not have gotten, but it gives you options.    Then all it is, is you are right back in the same spot you are now.  You know how it all sounds, and THEN you would just need something around 150w rms that will fit up front, and the 6.5"s and amp are sitting in the closet ready to go.Unless you have head unit you are set on, or want something that is more old-school style, you buy a small 50w x 4 amp for em (which is about $100-$150).</blockquote>
