I don't think 800x4 is what you are looking for. 800 watts will kill all of those items. Maybe a 50x4 like the diamond audio in my sig will work just nicely.

u sure thats what i need, seems a little underpowered from the specs of the speakers

Are you sure you are looking at RMS ratings? There is also a great difference in "loudness" in the mids and highs compared to a sub. For instance, I can hear mids/highs pretty clear at ~30 watts (clean from an external amp) while by sub amp is push over 1k watts. I am not sure why this is however, but I think anything more than 2 or 300 watts is very quite loud and is only reserved for items like the boston pros or something.

Ok this is whats in my car right now Pioneer 6" x 9" REV-series 2-Way Speaker with 350 Watts Max. Power , Oversized 6.5" 4-Way Speaker, 240 Watts Max. Power , and a set of tweeters running at Nominal Power: 50 W, wanting to know if the Orion 400x4 is decent

your 6.9's are 80w and your 6.5's look like 50w. I would say a good quality 100x4 would be more than enough for all the sq you're going to get. Obviously you'd want the gains lower for the 6.5's vs the 6x9's.

The 4004 is a sweet amp. It's not 100x4, but it's under-rated at 50x4. I'm sure it would do a good job.
