[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 8681470, member: 634282"] What vehicle you putting this in? Most people do not like rear speakers,but I like the surround effect.Doesnt take much for the rears to over power the front staging/thus making your staging sound like garbage.If you decide to place 6x9s, or even 5.25 coax in the rear and placing a sub in the trunk space, You will need to seal off those speakers so that the sub woofers sound waves/air movement dose not destroy/ damage your rear speakers(caping them off with 1/4" plywood works just fine up to 1/2".You will only need approx 30 rms for each rear speaker to blend in with the front stage, or you can place a bass blocker on the + side of the rears and run off HU power to keep them alive for quite a while.(I still use a small amps on all my stuff and tune accordingly).Id place the 4 ch up front and get a small used 2 ch of 30x2 or up to 50x2 .Youcan find a decent little Alpine 3522 for cheap and a great little amp).Id try the front stage with the 4 ch. along with the sub, and see if you even want that little bit of surround effect later on.It willnot take much to add later.Just my 2 cents [/QUOTE]
