Default Facotry Head Unit with Clean Sweep

Does anybody have any experience running the JL Audio Clean Sweep and related JL Audio components to work with the factory 6 disc head unit? I want to replace the speakers and add an amplifier. Does this set up make sense and will it work for the 2010 FX4 Screw? I am just wanting some quality sound without losing too much space in the rear with an extra amp and a sub. Here is what I am planning on:
Front speakers: JL Audio 5x7 component C5-570
Rear speakers: JL Audio 5x7 component C5-570
Amp: JL Audio 4-way G Series G4500
JL Audio Clean Sweep CL441-dsp
Line Driver: JL Audio CL-RLC
Signal Summing Device: JL Audio CL-SSI
Load Sensing Adapter: JL Audio CL-LSA

Will I get adequate bass with these 5x7s? Not looking for too much but I really am hoping to get by without adding the sub, just hoping these speakers hit a little on the low end.

I'm looking at a very similar setup myself. I'm trying to decide between the JL Cleansweep vs the AudioControl LC7. It appears the LC7 has summing built in, but I don't have first hand experience with either.

I just figured might as well keep everything JL. The Cleansweep seems like it should be just fine, have never had any issues with JL Audio. As long as I can keep everything hidden I will be happy.

Not a whole lot of room to keep it all hidden..

Bump - I'd really like to hear if anyone has firsthand experience with this.

Default audiocontrol

I used an audiocontrol LC6 in my last car (mazda rx8) with an infinity 5 channel amp and a 10 inch sub. I didn't install it, but it cleaned up the signal nicely and the system sounded pretty nice.

The installer said that the audiocontrol stuff is easy to set up compared with some other stuff out there and from reading the installation manual, it doesn't look that tough. I'm planning on using one in my '09 xlt as soon as I get moving on the system.

I would go with amped 6.5 separate components if you are wanting to get by without subs and a head unit. There is a 5x7 to 6.5 kit for installs... Can't remember where I bought them. Crutchfield prolly...

Just my 2 cents... I'm sorry, I have been outta the stereo scene for years so I don't know what the cleansweep, line drivers and such are...
