[QUOTE="winkychevelle, post: 8093844, member: 611804"] If I were in your shoes an infinity reference 10 in a .6cube box on a decent 5 channel would sound nice No amping your door speakers doesn't take the bass out I them although we usually cut the bass frequencies so the door speakers can handle more power. With the sub low passed to 80hz your speakers no longer need to play anything lower than 80hz. Jbl makes a 5channel ez-series amp that I would choose over the kicker because it has a clip light and a set up cd which since you are new to audio is a great thing. The kicker is good but it is larger with less features and my bet more expensive. You could always go with a 4channel and mono block seperate just means more wiring which can add up In cost but 4channel amps generally have better crossover features and the minis are usually more powerful. One thing to note is you have 2ohm door speakers which means the amp is working harder to push them. Running the full range side of the amp at 2ohm and the bass side at minimum impedence may cause the amp to overheat and go into protect. A quality amp should handle this fine but cheap amps are known for this. [/QUOTE]
