Do you just want it loud? I don't know what kind of fidelity you are going to get from this stuff, but it'll probably be loud.

Here is another option that I think would give you better sound quality and save you $20.

Head Unit: Alpine 9827 $215.00
Front Speakers: Infinity Kappa 60.5cs 6-1/2\" $187.00
4 channel amp: SoundStream Xstream Series XTA480.4 - 4CH x 60W RMS @ 4 Ohms $209
Sub: Use the sub listed above.

Instead of running two amp use the four channel amp with the front two channels for the speakers and bridge the rear channel for the sub. Just a thought.

The amp I recommended will not be enough for the requirement of the infinity sub. You would need a little more power, you could go with two of these for about the same price, and have plenty of power for both the sub and speakers. The one for the front speakers could be wired to run 75 watts RMS x 2, and the other could be bridge to drive 300 Watts RMS x 1 for the infinity sub.

Crutchfield is A LOT better for home audio (although not nearly the best) than car audio.
