CAR: saab 95 wagon

Amp: Arc Audio FD4150 4x80w RMS @ 4ohm
Amp2: Hertz EP4 4x60w RMS @ 4 ohm (not purchased yet - open to other ideas) (max budget is $300)

Front: Alpine Type X Pro 6.5 Components 300w peak 100w continuous
(woofer in door, tweeter on dash)

Rear: Hertz ECX100 4" 90w peak, 40W Continuous

Sub: JL Audio 6w0-8 x2 8ohm (in parallel for 4 ohm)

If I use the arc to power all 4 speakers, is that enough power for the type x's?

If not, I was thinking of either going active on the type x's using the arc or bridge it and run 160wx2 and run passive. Then I would use the hertz EP4 or other yet to be purchased amp to power the rear ECX100 and the small subs (2x60w, 1 x190w)

What would give me the best SQ?

Lastly, I do not want to beef up my cars power system. (altern, batt etc) Would I be ok running this?

Thanks

 

Your alt will be fine runnin that, i would use the more powerfull amp on the subs tho.

 

Any recommendations on an amp that would a)meet around my budget $300-$400 b) have enough power to drive the 2 rears and the 2 small subs?

 

What's the lowest power that would be ok for the type x's

 

Thanks in advance for the help..

 

If that's all the power you want or need I would bridge the Hertz to 2 channels and use it to run the front comps thru the supplied crossovers. Use the front channels off the Arc for your rears and bridge the rear channels to run the 6W0's at 4ohms.

This gives you max power from those amps at impedances they will be happy with......
