looking to complete audio, need suggestions

Well firstoff for my headunit i have a pioneer avhp4000dvd, sub-kicker cv10 400rms shallow mount, and a kicker zx 300.1 amp that puts out 343rms.

i still have the stock speakers but i just got the money and ill be buying these kicker ds 650.2 components. i

know theyre not top of the line, but my friend got them in his srt and they sounded really good to me. im not doing competitions or anything but just wanted a decent speaker. (yes im staying all kicker)

for the rears i want these. kicker ds930s
http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...er+DS6930.html

now my plan is to get another cv10 and get a nice slim box setup in my trunk that can still be easily removed when i hit the track. my main concern is, since the zx300.1 is a monoblock amp wut can i do with it?can i power the 6x9s with it? i know i need a 2 channel to power the two subs, or should i just get another zx300.1 to power the 2nd cv10 and just leave the 6x9s alone since im not going for an extreme setup?


my goal w/the 2nd sub is to just get more of a bass "thump" and the components in the front and 6x9s are there to get me a clearer sound without distortion.

with only 600rms from 2 shallow subs i dont think you will need to worry about amping your speakers.

id just get the upgraded speakers, throw another shallow sub with the same amp in and call it a day

thats wut i was thinking. well the subs can handle 800 rms, i just have the one underpowered. how exactly do u run 2 monoblock amps tho? ive been considering just getting a kicker 2 channel 500 or 700 watt 2 channel.

link us to the specs on the shallow sub, depending on the ohm and if its DVC you may be able to get one 800rms amp and run it at 1-2 ohms

if you were to get a 2nd amp you would set it up exactly as your other one

im guessing you meant 4, not r


in that case if you can find a amp that does 800rms at 2 ohms you can run both off one amp.
