[QUOTE="Dirtrider4eva, post: 7421390, member: 631267"] FALSE, alot. 1. a sub that handles around 1200 watts can be had for around 200. sundown sa 12s can take that, aq hdcs, so many more. 2. the 6.9s you shouldnt worry about, since you have the 6 speaker factory setup, they wont add a huge input at all if their going in the rear hatch area. 3. a 4 channel can work. its just not the best line to take. i would try to find a 5 channel, that has class a/b power, and D power. then you can power both speakers and sub. 4. Subs take D power normally, but can take a/b, Speakers are only A/B because D = lower frequencies and higher distortion. 5. mount the amp on the back of the box can damage the amp from the high vibrations. you should mount it somewhere else in the car, or build a mounting rack. if you absoultely have to, get rubber spaces for between the amp and box to reduce vibration. 6. most factory head units cannot run an amp for they lack RCA inputs. you need to look into the back of the headunit and see, if not, you will need an adapter, or another deck.
