[QUOTE="spoonraker, post: 3243392, member: 570956"] Unless you find a five channel amp that provides how much power you need for a set of components on two of the channels at 4 ohms, two channels that provide how much power you need for a set of components AND the 4'' speakers at 2 ohms, and then another channel that provides how much power you need for both your subwoofers at an impedance possible for the voice coils of your subs, then you will need more than one amp. The odds of finding one amp that will support the varying levels of power and impedance you'll need are very slim. Assuming that the 4'' speakers handle about the same amount of power as the component sets, it wouldn't be too hard to find a 4-channel amp that can run one set of comps at 4 ohms with the proper power, and then another set of comps and the 4'' speakers on the remaining channels at 2 ohms, since typically in amps when the impedance is cut in half the power doubles, which would be exactly what you need. Then you'd just need to find an amp for your subs and you'd be all set. [/QUOTE]
