Will I need a more powerful amp?
I trying to plan out my install with some stuff I have laying around.
I going to be getting the SuperCrew Sound single 10" sub box for my 08 SuperCrew. I will most likely run a 4ohm sub with 50 - 150rms and 300watts peak.
I have a Kicker ZX200.4 amp that I would like to use to power the front 6.5" Kicker components that will replace the front door stock speakers and the single 10" sub.
The amp is rated at 50x4 @ 2ohms Stereo, 100x2 @ 2ohms Mono
Will this work ok? I'm not looking to bounce quarters off the roof but just get alot better sound. We listed to a variety of music and just want some good bass out of the 10" but not too much.
I want to stay with the 4channel amp to keep it simple.
I've had a few systems before but they we never this small in wattage or simple. So I figured I'd ask here. Worst case I can always just try it and see.
Thanks

if you use 2 channels for your components(50x2) then bridge the other 2 for your sub(100x1) i think it will be OK..... but just OK. 50 watts is a little LESS then most head units can push nowadays...instead id bridge your amp(100x2) for both of your components then invest is a powerd thunderform from MTX

That will work great. As long as your sub is a 4 ohm.
