Default New Stereo/Amp Questions

Hi,

I am trying to put together a parts list for upgrading everything in my 07 GT. I currently have the Sony MEX-GS600BT head unit with Infinity Reference 6832cf speakers front and rear. I am looking at putting an Alpine MRV-M500 amp and a decent 12" sub in the trunk. I am just trying to figure out how to power the front and rear speakers and the door subs.

Does anyone know what the power rating is for the factory door subs? I was contemplating getting the Shelby Kicker 8" door subs and powering the front speakers and the door subs off of a 4-channel amp and then just power the rear speakers off of the head unit. If I were to do something like that, what size of an amp should I be looking at? The IF 6832cf speakers are rated at 60w RMS/180W peak and the Shelby kickers are 200w RMS/400w Peak. That would require a good size amp to power. something around 600W.

What is the best way to approach this?

Thanks,

Sean

the factory door woofers are dual-voice-coil, 1.2 ohms per coil, 60 watts per coil.
