by looking at all the gear in my sig, could it all be run by a single amp?
front + rear + sub + bass shakers ?

You could definitely use a 5 channel amp to power the front, rear and subwoofer sections. Eclipse makes a fine amp in the XA5000, ICEpower class D and tons of power. www.eclipse-web.com

I don't think that has enough power to run all of my gear.

What is your budget? Like was said above, there are 5 chan amps (actually quite a few) that can take care of the front, rear, and sub stages.

maybe so but I really be interested if it was possable to also power the bass shakers
hypatheticly speaking could it be done? if I could plug everything into a single amplifer and not loose sound quality I'd be amazed

So would I.

7 chans would be pretty slim pickings, especially with any decent power on the sub channel.

I think a 5 channel amp with enough power could do it, just need to figure out how much power is needed.

Aura Bass Shakers 25w rms 4ohm x4
Blaupunkt TSx352 30w rms 4ohm x2
Inifity Reference 2way 6x9 100w rms 4ohm x2
JL Audio 10w6v2 400w rms 4ohm x1

would need to put the Aura Bass Shakers on the front and rear channels
so I think it goes
front channel 55w rms
rear 125w rms
sub 400w rms

Find a 5 channel that does 100-125 watts per "speaker" channel.
One speaker and one shaker per channel.

Elemental designs has their nine.5 and there are many others, but to be honest, I havent shopped for a 5 channel since I found my A/D/S.
Hell, they made a few amps that might work.... they 840 and 850 for example, have 8 channels at 40 or 50 watts and they can be combined in all kinda ways.
