[QUOTE="DigitalBoy0101, post: 6352070, member: 615122"] Okay, I'm re-doing the system in my '02 Avalanche. The component set in my front doors has been blown for about a year, and it's time to fix it. System was installed around Nov. '05. My system: Alpine CDA-9853 headunit with faceplate iPod glider control Alpine KCA-420i iPod interface adapter, dock ran to glovebox Alpine MRV-F345 door amp 75W X4 RMS Alpine SPR-17LS R-series 6 1/2" components (front doors) 70W RMS 350W peak Alpine SPR-17LP R-series 6 1/2" coaxials (rear doors) 50W RMS 250W peak Alpine MRD-M605 sub amp 400W RMS mono JL Audio midgate Stealthbox 2 12" subs I think it's rated at 800W RMS All speaker and amp ratings at 4 ohms. So far I got a good deal on Critical Mass RS6 coaxials for the rear doors and a C652 component set for the front doors. The CMA speakers are rated at 160W RMS for the coaxials and 200W RMS for the components, but is that total or per side? Specs don't really make it clear, and I don't want to destroy them by throwing too much amp at them. If the rating is per side I plan on upgrading my amps to around 115-125W per channel, and eventually adding a second C652 component set in Q-logic kick panel enclosures. Sub amp I plan on upgrading to 600-700W RMS. Thoughts and opinions, please. [/QUOTE]
