Alright. So first off, I am totally new to car systems! I understand a bit of the basic things, but I would like a bit of professional help.
It all started with wanting bluetooth in my car...
To make it a bit short... I will just list what I have

Duel electronics radio (first thing I bought... it was cheap)
Pioneer TS-G690 speakers (fits all doors)
JVC CS-BB2 Powered Underseat Sub
MTX 12" Subs (2 in an enclosure)

I think my pieces all came from different puzzles....
I was going to run new speaker wires and I had lined up a non-bridgeable amp that had 45rms for the speakers... but I think my factory wires will be fine with those speakers and I think the radio will power them enough, am I wrong? I won't be blasting music a whole lot, and factory with the aftermarket radio seems loud enough.
I bought the powered sub off of ebay, thought that was good enough for now and I can upgrade later, it was on the cheaper side.
I am getting the MTX subs at a decent price, so I figured they are worth it.
My main problem is that I am trying to find a cheaper amp for the MTX, it is 1000rms at 2ohms and it's hard to find. Any ideas?

I know it's kinda a mess, but I wanted to go cheap for my first time learning and this is what I ended up with. What are your thoughts?
Thanks in advance and God bless!

Signal flow should be HU to DSP to amps. You would lose the ability to EQ and time align the sub with the DSP unit if you bypassed the DSP.

Honestly, beyond what you need. It will do the trick for sure, but it is excessive. Not a bad thing, just more than you will ever need. No need...
