Enough amp. for my components?

[teenycar 10+ year member]

I have a pair of Infinity 6.1 cappa perfects in the rear (100watt RMS) and a pair of Hertz hsk 165's (125watt RMS) for the front. I already have an infinity reference 475A 4 channel amp. It puts out 75 watts RMS per channel. Is this going to be enough amps. for the Hertz components? I know it will be fine for the cappa's but I want to make sure I am giving ample power to the Hertz components, which will be my front speakers. It was recommended that I run 75% of the RMS at the amplifier to protect the speakers.

Not at all true.

The Kappa's should be fine on the wattage. The Hertz will run much more than recommended if clean. I dont have much experience on Infinity amps. They will do the rated power. Not underrated nor overrated. Just send clean power to those components and you should be fine, but if it were me, Id upgrade the front stage amp if you have the $$$

I've heard the Hertz can handle quite a bit of power. I have 2 Hertz subs, but no experience with their comps.

I haven't posted in ages, but Alex from Bucharest has been following the blog and finished his first two-stroke in a very nice enclosure. Thanks Alex for sharing your pictures and supporting my blog. Great first build man!

Arc's put out some nice, clean power...but I'm biased //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif!

I listened to the Hertz Hi Energy 6.5 components (not sure on the model number but they were at $369 a set) and I loved how they sounded! I was looking at a used set of Alpine SPX17Pro's but those hertz were awesome on the display board. Question, I heard them on a PDX, has anyone heard them on an Audison or Kenwood XR4s? How much do the Audison LRX4's run?
