What do you think of this setup?

[redphoenix 10+ year member]

I have a Lexus SC400. Space is tight. so Small amp, small IB sub, and even 6.5's will be tough to fit.. and price is budgeted.. but what do you guys think?

Pioneer Headunit, not sure which one, but somewhere around 4-5v RCA

DLS CLASSIC CA31 Amp - Link

Elemental Designs 6000s Mids/Tweets - Link

Elemental Designs 11kv.2 Subwoofer Dual 4ohm (Running into 2 ohms) - Link

What do you think of this setup? I may not use the rears, or just wire them off the headunit and fade them.

If you have other suggestions (i recommend) please post them. Im limited by this:

6.5 low mounting dept fronts/tweets

6" mounting dept for 10" IB sub

small area for amp, but i may be able to get away with 2 small amps

im not looking for high DB numbers, i just need a replacement for the speakers.

Thanks

290 could be spent on a way better amp than that,, search the forums and try to find a good deal on a great amp.

ok... very unhelpful however.

small amp that powers sub and fronts? point me in the right direction

what else would you change? typing mediocre doesnt help me at all.

small area for amp, but i may be able to get away with 2 small amps but i prefer a 3 or 5ch amp

if i was you, i would get a good 4 channel amp and bridge the last two channels to your sub. look at the kicker zx line if you are willing to spend upwards of 300 on a single amp... but a cheaper route may be to go with two amps, one for your sub, one for your amp. You don't need much power for that sub.

Are you stuck with buying new or are you willing to buy from ebay/ classifieds?

i don't know much about focal speakers/ components

are you open to any brand of amp?
