[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 566829, member: 555320"] You probably won't need two whole amp kits. You may be able to find a 2-amp amp kit, or I've seen some amp kits that already come with distrobution blocks. But basically all you'll need is a distrobution block for the power wire and as the guy said, another pair of RCA's. Other than that, just make sure that the amp kit you get has enough power and ground wire (length wise). The you can just splice into the REM wire from one amp and run it to the other (you should be fine running two amps from the REM without any relays....but be careful if you add any more equipment [like an EQ]). Infinity makes great subs, and those perfects are pretty nice. I think they are a great choice. It would do good enough for now. Power handling is box dependent, and the Perfects definitely don't [I]need[/I] 350w each to sound good. Forget the 6x9, or at most spend ~$40-50 on them. But, spend the majority of your money on the front speakers as they will have a [B]much[/B] larger impact on the sound quality of your stereo. Rear fill isn't [I]needed[/I] unless you have 5.1 surround sound or carry a lot of rear-seat passenger and it's a very large car. One thing to be wary about CDT is that there seems to be as many people unhappy with them as their are who like them. CDT is hyped big time on this forum, go ahead and investigate other options and don't buy into the boner right yet.
