Posted July 3, 200916 yr I'm ordering comps for my front stage along with a amp, not sure what I should be looking at for quality though.If I put comps up front can I keep my 6.5 coax in the back and just run a 4 channel amp to the 6.5's and the fronts?Would that sound right?Trying to keep it under 250 for comps and amp

I was thinking any amp I could get that puts out 75-100rms a channel.Would the comp set pull a 4 ohm load or a 2 ohm load from the amp?I was looking at the kicker 5 1/4" component set, only $99 here My linkAnd then RF has a decent looking comp set too, My link
July 5, 200916 yr Either Set Would Do, I Know Some People That Run The Kicker Component Set And They Aren't Bad For That Price.It Depends On How You Wire It, You Can Get A 4 Ohm Or A 2 Ohm Load Presented To The Amp.Now The Problem Is Finding That Amp. Because A Sundown SAX-50.4 Is Around $205 - $215.
July 5, 200916 yr Author But I will only need a 2 channel amp if I just run comps and get rid of the back speakers right?And how would I get a 2 ohm load out of the amp?
July 5, 200916 yr Why do you want a 2ohms load for you amp?Take the BEST comps you can for front, and with the money left try to find a little 2 channel amp or a 4 ch if you keep the rear speakers.Put the more money on the front speakers, and find a cheap amp or a good used one!Just my little opinion
July 6, 200916 yr Author Okay help me out here.Ditch the back speakers or no?What are the best sounding comps I can get for under $150?
July 7, 200916 yr Best in that price range can only be told by your ears. Go listen to things and see what you like. And yes rears are teh useless.
