My car is a Subaru BRZ, it has speakers on front dash (3.5"), speakers in front doors (6.5"), and speakers in the rear (3.5"). I just purchased a Soundstream RUB4.500 4 channel amp to power these, it's rated at 75x4 @ 4ohm, or 125x4 @ 2ohm. I prefer to run at 2 ohm to get the best bang for my buck, but if you think I will get plenty out of 75 watts then that is fine with me.
What I am having a hard time with is finding 3.5" speakers that can handle 125 watts RMS. It seems much easier to find 4 ohm speakers at 75 watts.
I am also on the fence with which speakers to run off of this amp. I currently am not using the door speakers at all since I have a 12" sub in the trunk for bass. I disconnected the door speakers and use only the dash and rears for my highs. Do you think I should run doors and dash on amp, and maybe rears off of the radio itself? No rears at all?
Any help and\or speaker recommendations you can make will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
