Cheers everyone for your help! I really appreciate it! :thumbs: I figured a way round the component/amp problem that I was having without the front and back sounding the same ;) :D

So it's all looking quite good now... ;)

i dunno, you might be able to get away with running them all off a POWERFUL 4 Chn amp.

The only thing that would happen here is, that you wouldn't get a difference between front and rear sound :(

But it has the potential of working :D

Cheers Loud+Proud and Corb..... :thumbs:

Just one last question tho... I don't really want 4 amps! Is there anyway that both sets of comps can run off one amp at all??

2) For the front components(M661) I'd say get a D5 300.4 and bridge the channels to power the comps.

And for the rear components a D5 300.2

if i was u id look for at least a 800w 4 channel amp for all 4, i have 225w per speaker in my car and i neva run it past 60% of headunit power as its just too loud but it does sound clear and thats on a shitty amp, u have to rememmber if u run the subs propperly thats 1600w rms, now that a hell of alot of bass there, gotta have it in proportion :D

Wot about the amp to run the comp's then-will it work??

the amp will run the subs but not that great, the subs are 800w rms and the amp will run 1200w max @ 1ohm thats only 600w rms (i think) thats for 1 sub! u need to find a very powerful amp for them bad boy subs :thumbs:

Right, I'm just thinking about changing my stereo system in the near future, but REALLY need some help regarding amps etc before I decide on my new setup.....

1) If I've got two Diamond Audio M6 12D4 subs

http://www.diamondaudio.com/MobileAudio/index.cfm?page=Subwoofers

- will the D5 1200.1 amp be able to power BOTH subs or do I need a different amp?

The Diamond Audio amps can be found on:

http://www.diamondaudio.com/MobileAudio/index.cfm?page=Amplifiers


2) Also which amp is best for powering the components (the model no's are M661 and M641)??

http://www.diamondaudio.com/MobileAudio/index.cfm?page=Speakers

I was looking at the D5 600.4 but could the 4" comp's run off the headunit and just use and amp to power the 6"s?? And ifso-which one?

I'm really confused! :rolleyes: And ANY help whatsoever would be REALLY appreciated! :)
