Amplifier Recommendation?

At the risk of sounding like an idiot is there a big difference between pro audio speakers and regular consumer ones? And i was planning on going with the sub and the 4 midrange in the trunk and 2 more mid ranges on the lid with 4 (B&C) 6 1/2 mid basses in the door but you guys have me rethinking things.

So first there's my original option with 6 mid-range the 1 sub in the trunk and the 4 mid-bass in the car

Then there is the 3 mid-range 3 mid-bass and the sub in the trunk.

Also the suggestion to just start over the build using Pro audio speakers.

Got a lot to think about but i wasn't planning on having this finished until early August so I have plenty of time.

Well, looking more at B&C, I see they are a pretty diverse pro-audio oriented brand as well. Their products look great. You could just save a considerable bit of money going with some other brands that would still accomplish your goals. speakers in the "pro-audio" category aren't as worried about the intricacies of sound quality, just worried about taking gobs of power and putting it out clearly/cleanly, like a concert.

I would strongly suggest against using the trunk lid as any part of the enclosure, that'd just be a nightmare. However, you could do some midrange in small enclosures in the trunk I guess. Personally I'd focus on the door installs. A pair of mid-ranges in each door up front, and a pair of mid-bass in each door in the rear. And 2 or 4 super-tweets up front. It takes a lot of work and tuning and time and effort to get it all sounding well together.
