[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 348524, member: 550915"] Take a look at the Soundstream EGA500 amp available on clearance from [URL="http://www.millionbuy.com"]Millionbuy.com[/URL] . It is a 5 channel amp with crossovers built in for all of the channels. It is 25 watts to each of 4 channels for your high range speakers and 100 watts to 1 channel for a sub. 25 watts from a real amp will make a huge difference in the clarity of your high range speakers when compared to running them off the headunit. I don't think you will be happy with the sound of those Audiobahn 8s. I would try a different company and probably only go with 1 sub, either a 10 or an 8. For an 8 I would look at the JL 8W0. For a 10 I would suggest the Elemental Designs eD10Kx. Both work in a really tiny box and will do well on the 100w sub channel of that Soundstream amp. They are both better choices than the Audiobahn for sound quality and either can be had for less than $80 if you shop around a bit for the JL (the eD is on sale at their site for $75 + shipping). You should be able to add a sub and full system amplification for less than $250 if you do the install yourself. The difference you will note will be night and day, trust me. [/QUOTE]
