Which amp for doors speakers?
Ok here's the deal... I have a HiFonics 100.4 (100w x4 @4ohm, 200w x4 @2ohm). My front door speakers are Infinity 6x8 components with Infinity coax 6x8 in the rear. Both sets are 2ohm. Fronts are 90w rms and rears 60w rms. I'm wondering if I should sell the HiFonics and buy a Fosgate 300.4 (50w x4 @4ohm, 75w x4 @2ohm). I know the Fosgate will put out a little more than what they're rated for, but I'm thinking the 200w from the HiFonics will be too much.
Suggestions?

X2 you should have the rears turned down low anyway for good sq and imaging if u don't want to turn then down it should still hold the power as long as it's clean.
Besides that Rockford will most likely put that hifonics to shame in terms of output,sq, and cleaner power

That's prob what I'm going to do. Was just wondering if swapping it out would be worth the hassle of waiting another week for the new amp to show up. I really want to get this install finished. I don't know if I can handle listening to these speakers for another week on HU power only.
Still waiting on my RCAs and such to show up. Should be here on Monday. Maybe I'll get lucky and they'll show up tomorrow instead.

I really like RF amps. I still have my old 360a2. I'll prob use it on this install when I finally decide on a sub. Don't think my old Pioneer Premeir subs will fit under the rear seat.

Whats the mounting depth on that pioneer sub? I've seen some boxes with as much as 6 3/4 inch .

I haven't measured it. They're still mounted in a single-cab truck box. Been in my shop for a little over 2 years now collecting dust. They are the nickle plated-looking subs. Bought them around 1999. 12" single voice coil.
