Thank again to all. Mod's nothing material. 67 gal titan tank, air lift leveling kit. So with this amp I can add sub without adding a dedicated amp. Also what are thoughts on rear speakers.

No you will need a separate sub amp with the MS-8... Rear speakers are more just for a little rear fill for passengers but if your front components are done well you will have no need for them...

with the 4channel he can bridge the rear channels for a 4ohm subwoofer.

the rainbow is a 2ohm comp set so it will be on the front 2 channels. I should have said that earlier but I forgot.

as far as rear speakers, its personal preference. If you get the JBL MS-8 they wont mess up your front stage or anything because they'll be processed and can actually add depth to the stage. If i were you, if you decide to get the MS-8 I'd definitely run rears too that way you take full advantage of the processing. I plan to add rears when I get my ms-8. If you dont do the JBL ms-8, the rears can mess with your staging; but if youre not really that deep into it and just want a nice sound, rear fill is great for rear passengers and nice ambiance as well

one last question. I couldnt find the Rainbow cmx 465 on the rainbow factory website. Are these a current model and is the woofersetc an authorized dealer?
