I wouldnt use 600 watts on any poineer sub if its only rates for 400 rms... are they dual or single 4 ohm VC's?

And no you will have to get a 2ch. amp for your speakers as well as a mono for the subs...

ok so il just run the 6x9s from the head unit ...

what do you mean vcs?

That will work as well...

voice coils, your sub will either be a dual 4 or a single 4 ohm voice coil and that will determine what you can wire them at...

just googled it it has a single voice coil ..

btw theyre pioneer tsw306cs

Your subs can then be wired down to 2 ohms... which means you will need about 1000 rms at 2ohms in an amp so now what is your budget?
