Hi, well today I got my Thunderform box loaded with the 2 10" subs and I've got my MB quart premium components for the front. Now...I'm thinking I'll use the amp I already have (300 watt Kenwood) for the front and rear and get a mono amp for the subs.

Any suggestions or advice would be welcome. What amp? will a 300 watt amp be enough to drive the speakers? I'm aware that some amps are too big for under the dak seats, I'm thinking of a memphis or MTX mono.

Besides having the 2 amps there's the XM receiver that'll have to go...somewhere??!!! I'm not doing the install but I'm getting close to having all my gear ready to go.

One more question..I haven't a clue what to do with the rears, I've re thought this as I've learned more from this site..what what you do with the rears? I don't want to leave stock in of course, so then what?

I'll thank you in advance for answering probably one too many questions. So, thank you.

Rear speakers? What kind of cab? Club or Quad - it's worth putting some co-axials in the Quad since people can actually sit back there, but in any other cab rear speakers are a big waste - well unless you drive in reverse alot ;)

Thanks John, I've got the CC and I bought a Memphis amp and yes, I think I'll put some inexpensive coaxials in the rear. I have an install day for Feb (day job) and it's going to be a clean install. XM receiver will go under the rear side panel so not much will be visible.
