do i run an amp for the fronts and one for the rear? a 4 channel to all four? will that be a compromise for 2 speakers in terms of power they get? what the fock? mike-AAAYY!!!
One large 4 channel amp should be more than fine. Especially if you dont want a sub.

i won't buy a sony amp either...
i just can't justify putting a JL amp in my civic... the 300x4 amp, if i were to get one, would go in the S... i just haven't gone the modding s2000 route yet..(at least sound wise)..i want to do a few other things with the S first.
300x4? WTF dude.

You'll be surprised at how much a decent 40x4 or 60x4 amp can do when paired with good speakers. Two a 50x2 and 100x amp will be a lot more than a single 60x4 and probably not gain much, so I'd stick with a single amp towards the top of the front speakers' range (50-60W RMS).

It's about the current. . . of which I haven't the slightest idea of what a good current load is on a car amp.
