[QUOTE="SSS 18734, post: 4814234, member: 559710"] Even the cheapest amplifier will be a step up from head unit power. You're lucky if you get 12 watts per channel from a head unit. Another option you have is to bridge the amplifier, essentially turning it into a two channel and giving you substantially more power for those two channels. That should give you 150watts RMS x2. You can run your front stage off that and have plenty of head room. Run the rear speakers off the head unit for rear fill, if you run them at all. You could also run two cheap, entry level subs off of 300 watts. [/QUOTE]
