    Thanks in advance. I have an Alpine CDs 117 deck, pair 6x8 3-way 700W speakers as well as pair 80W speakers. How big amp do I need?

    Which speakers do you have that are 700w ?! And why are your 2 pairs so different in wattage?! Jw

    Pioneer TS A6874R are 350W each for the back and the other 2 are just to upgrade the front factory set. I'm not trying to make my ears bleed I just want a better system

    to amplify inside speakers you really don't need anything too big, for example i just use a alpine mrp-f250 to run 4 kicker ks 6x9, given i'm only using 2 channels but that amp is 250 watts and makes them sound great, really anything above 300watts will work for you oh and preferably a 4 channel so you can fade individually if you wish.

    k thanks. as for wiring what do I need? or anything else for that matter. I'd like to just give the guy everything so he doesn't over charge me for something I don't have. Thanks again!

    for wiring if you are going to have just that 1 amp in there go with a 8 gauge wring kit, if you think you may upgrade later, just invest into a 4 gauge and be done.... just like car audio brands, brands of wire also matter, i personally go with kicker, rockford fosgate, tsunami, bravo, street wires, installation bay(not best), actually with all that said you can pick up a pretty decent kit at your local walmart its a scosche kit...
