i would get a 2 ch and bridge it to the sub wired at 4ohms and get a 4 ch for your highs. maybe crossfire vr402 would be good for subs and maybe vr404 for your highs. you can get those at great prices and they are nice amps. all in what your wanting to spend. you would be looking at around 200 bucks for bot of those used.

you could buy a 4 channel amp and bridge channels 3/4 for the sub and use 1&2 for the doors

or this

http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx?g=120&i=489HA1040&c=3&tp=115

but you need an amp that bridges to 4 ohms . i would go for the first one imho

 

[gladiator_jai 10+ year member]

yes but they dont provide enuf power for the sub...

it is at 400W rms but the amps us said give 250 /channel when bridged.

Can i Use a higher wattage profile amp that is 2 channel and use 1 channel for the sub and 1 channel for both speakers

 

[Deenice21 10+ year member]

just saw this one too

http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx?g=120&i=023THA475&c=3&tp=115

149 in the cart.

but to answer your question i never liked kenwood products but i have heard the old cl profile amps they (looked and) sounded great for the price and if you buy from crutchfield they have a great warranty

 

[gladiator_jai 10+ year member]

but same problem not enuf power for the sub.....

 

[Deenice21 10+ year member]
