ok.. i've got a set of diamond audio m5 components, a set of kicker rs6s, and a re hc 15...

my question..

would i be happier just putting in the diamonds, and selling the kickers for a amp to push the diamonds, or put all of them in and run a crossfire tek 50x4 to them all?

my problem is that i dont know where im going to put them in this extended cab sonoma, and i dont want to mix and match amps, but i dont think crossfire makes a tek that is 100x4 or even 75x4.. so i could get a tek that does 125x2 and run just the m5s off it..

i dont know.. someone help me out cuz im hooking it all up this weekend and want to get it done right the first time.. and i want to figure out which component amp to get.

ok let me simplify the question.. is 1 set of components with 125 watts louder than 2 set with 50 on each set..

well, i dont know if it would be louder, but i would go with the more watts to only one set. id rather have one really nice sounding set rather than 2 mediocre pairs.....

but they arent two mediocre pairs.. they are two top of the line pairs.. well.. one is mid-line... and the other is top..

i'd use the same speakers either way, but i just wanna know the watt situation.

i know they are top of the line....but with the lower wattage they are mediocre compared to the same speakers with the higher wattage. the 2 pair would be louder, but obviously the 1 pair would be clearer.
