Amping suggestions for system

 

Unregistered guest
I just got a CDT HD-62 component set and CDT CL-6X for rear fill. Plan on getting one JL 10w3 in the future. I was wondering if any one here could give me some ampping suggestions. Should I go with a 4-Channel and a mono channel or a 5 channel or something else (brands and wattage please). FYI i have an eclipse 8454 in 2000 toyota celica with a budget around 600. Thanks in advance for the help.

IMO, I would pick one mono and a four channel.

Any more inputs please? What would be the benefits of a mono and a four channel?

better stereo/channel separations , more freedom of controls like fader , each 1 of the speakers gets its own power , cleaner sounding tunes & a mono will allow for a bigger more powerful sub(s) etc

you can go all kicker. they are reasonably priced and perform very well.
kicker kx400.1
kicker kx 200.4

you would have to get the dual 4ohm sub if you want to use the kx400.1

Could I run the rear speakers off my HU? So then i would just get a 2 channel and a mono. Would u guys say that was a good set up?

actually you don't even need rearfill speakers. i took mine out and it sounds better.

I already have the rear speakers, so would i damage the rear speakers that run at 40W RMS connect to a HU at 13W RMS. Thats if the components are hooked to a 2ch amp and the sub to a mono? Would this work out? (trying not to spend money where its not needed)

buy the mono amp 4 ur sub now & run highs/mids off your HU 4 the time being

if u find your highs/mids can't keep up to balance with your bass - then buy the 4 chan amp .....
