Which amp should i get?

[JScullari]

I am upgrading my system with these three items :

1) JBL GT6-6 6-1/2" 2-Way Car Speakers - Sonic Electronix (JBL Gt6-6 for my door speakers)

2) JBL GTO938 Grand Touring GTO 6" x 9" Car Speakers (JBL GTO938 for my rear deck)

3)JBL CS1214 12" Single 4 Ohm CS Series Car Subwoofer (JBL CS1214 subwoofer)

I already have a clarion receiver that is 50x4 I was thinking of changing that too but not sure yet.

I was wondering what kind of amp i should get and also any additional installation equipment i need to buy for the whole system (I am new to this but I know i need to get a box for the sub and speaker wire)

Thank you.

5 channel amp. Rockford Fosgate R600X5 600W 5-Chan Class AB D Prime Amplifier

A ported or sealed enclosure is needed also.

@mylows10 ; can build you an install kit with everything you need all assembled and shipped to you for a good price. Go with the CCA option if you are on a budget.

Your head unit only realistically puts out 10-15 watts a channel. Peak power means nothing just garbage marketing gimmicks. That amp will give you 50 real watts going to your speakers and enough to power your subwoofer.

Try to find a decent 5 chan amp, there are several vendors on here that can assist you with choices and prices, mylows10, and trumpet, come to mind. I have dealt with both of them, very stand up guys, with great follow through cusomer service.
