I'm running 87 watts rms to my Hifonics components, and they sound okay, I'm fixin to add some cheap NB 1 tweeters to catch the high hats and some of the other higher frequency sound on the music, to help even out the hi's. Them lil cheap things are 97 db sensitivity so i can get away with just running them off the deck power. Check on Amazon for a 4 channel amp, i got mine for under 100 bucks, but i'm also going with an Okay brand, not top of the line stuff like Sqcomp and Derick. My amp is a Crunch 1400.4 I went with Maxxsonics amps. I also have a 1200 Brutus for the subs. Maxxsonics also makes Mb Quart, which is the top of the line brand for Maxxsonics. They also manufactured the Autotek brand as well. I want to go on ahead and just grab the 2000 watt brutus, but i don't think i can provide the power to feed that amp. Once i can stay around 14.4 Volts, then i'll consider the bigger amp.

I would install the eq6500 under the steering wheel or inside the glove compartment.

Since you all ready have a Hifonics you could get a HFi100.2 and run passive 100x2 into the 6.5 + Tweeters Passive means that you are going to use the x-over between the amp and the speakers.

HFi100.2 LINK



You could still run passive with a 3 way system with a x-over and not breaking the bank going Active, and still use only 2 amps 1 for the sub and 1 for the speakers (Mid-bass 6.5", 3" mids, tweeters)

Then if you really want to go 3 way active, it's a complete different story.
