Default Amp question

Ok so I have a 10'' kicker solobaric l7 that I am going to put in my 04 STX regular cab. I am also going to replace the factory speakers just havent decided what brand to go with. Are there any 5 channel amps that will push the sub and door speakers that I am going to get? I havent been able to find one yet. If you know of any please let me know or let me know a different way to hook up my system as I am new to this.

The L7 10 wants 600 watts rms so you most likely arent going to be able to get a 5 channel to run everything. You are going to want to use a kicker 750.1 to run the sub and depending what door speakers you choose to run, either a 350 or 650 watts 4 channel amp. I will be posting pics of the system i am installing in my truck now for you to take a look at. I am running 4 L7 10s on a kicker 2500 and 3 sets of qs components and 3 sets of SS tweeters on a kicker 850.4. Any questions about the specifics let me know.

Well you are money ahead since you already have the sub. Check out www.hifisoundconnection.com for your amps and I would use EBAY for your door speakers.

Are you wanting to run Component or coaxial speakers? Where are you going to put the sub?

I have a regular cab but there is a lot of room behind my seats I am going to mount it behind my console. I am going to go with coaxials for now. I will probably upgrade everything when I start my new job. I just dont want anything too complicated because like I said I am new to this.
