Advice on system please

[rtcoop]

It's been a long time since I've had an aftermarket system in my truck and I'm just looking for a little advice. I've got 2 Memphis audio mclass 10" subs that are rated at 300 watts rms at 4 ohm each. I'm looking at getting an alpine pdx-m6 which is rated at 600 watts rms at 4 ohm. Is that amp enough or would I need something else? I'm also looking at getting an alpine ive-w530 head unit or a pioneer 80prs so any thoughts on those or possible alternatives would be greatly appreciated. Links to the products are listed below.

Subs: memphis audio mclass 10's

Amp: alpine pdx-m6

Alpine Head unit: Alpine ive-w530

Pioneer head unit: pioneer deh-80prs

I've already got a clarion xc1410 running 4 door speakers through a sony deck. The problem with the sony deck is it only has 1 RCA output so it makes installation of multiple amps difficult so I really want to get rid of it. This is all going into a 2005 f150 crew cab.

The M6 amp is fine. Look at the new Pioneer double DINs. The sound control you will have isn't quite as good as 80PRS but it's much better than IVE-W530.

Thanks for the reply. I think I have it narrowed down between these models. Any experience or opinions with these? I apologize fir the questions but I've just been out of the car audio scene for a long time and it seems like everything has changed.

^ this. There are much better amps with a lot more flexibility and better reviews I haven't seen a lot of people on here happy with the pdx series besides the size of them.

I already have the subs and the fox box. It fits perfect under the seat. I actually already have m6 amp as well. I got it for $200 so I didn't want to pass it up. I believe I will end up getting the pioneer avh-x3700. It has the same features as the 5600 but with a better eq.

Also, I've seen quite a few recommendations for the soundqubed stuff. Is that good quality equipment? Like I said I have been out the car audio thing for a long time and there's a lot new stuff around.
