Right now I have a Fosgate amp and two 12" subs in the trunk. I replaced the stock 6x9's with pioneers. I replaced the door speakers with 4" jbl pros. I just got polk 5 1/4 components and the qlogic kickpanels. I have a pioneer 7300mp that i will be putting in, in place of the jvc hu that is in there now. The problem I am having is the only amps available in this town are 2 channel. One is 120w and the other is 500w. Im not sure the best way to hook this all up. Some say don't hook up the 6x9's and just run the fronts, but I feel that would be a big waste of money. And I like the output from the 6x9's.
Any suggestions would be greatly apperciated. Im home for lunch so im able to post but I have to head back to work. From work I can read the comments but can't post, so if any questions are posted it will take me about four hours to respond. I will visit the site often to see the suggestions you guys come up with. Thank you very much.
Oh, waiting for a 4 channel amp is not an option. My brother in-law is in town and willing to help me this weekend.
I KNOW "NO MEENS NO", BUT BAAA BAAA, COULD MEEN ANYTHING!
If you want to invest the money into getting a couple more amps go for it. But what anyone who has worked with stereo's or even just sat in the drivers/passenger seat of a cavalier/sunfire all you need for good soundstaging is front speakers with the proper amount of power going to them. The rear speakers are just there to fill in bass when a subwoofer isn't present in a car stereo. You may feel like its a waste of money not to power those speakers through the amp but really its the smartest thing not to.
Any more questions feel free to email me at gvaags@shaw.ca
Aight, im off to play some Hold Em'. I will buy the 500w amp for the componets, and if i win enough I will buy the little 120w amp for the 4's in the door. Theres still something inside me that hates having paid that much for those 6x9 pioneer speakers and not using them. Oh well, thanks for the help. If anyone else wants to add something or just agree with this let me know. Thanks for any and all replys.

Oh if the 4's in the door wont help anything then I might as well use the rear connection off the head unit to run the 6x9's in back and all problems solved...cool. Thanks guys!!!
