    Do you have any subs in mind? A couple of low-powered 10s would do nicely on that 5-channel 2000GTGP just posted.

    One still slow and loud... other one scoots just a bit.

    Just check your prices comparing a five as compared to a two and a monoblock for the sub. Truthfully you may get away with a four. Run the front two channels to the front and bridge the rear two for a sub and let your head unit handle your rear speakers. The front are what really need to be amplified.

    Hard to beat the quality of that Image Dynamics amp. Don't worry about what the specs say....it's got enough power to give you what you want.
    11 is louder than 10!

    Not only will it be more than enough power for a great system. One thing to keep in mind here is space usage and ease of installation. A multi amplifier system is more involved since your running power, ground, turn on wires and RCA's to multiple. Not only that but you have to find a place for both of them. Just keeping that in mind, if you don't need more than a moderate amount of power, a single 5 channel amplifier would be perfect.
    Infinity all around.

    Sounds like a great plan! No figure out exactly which speakers you want to go with and I know us guys on here including myself would be happy to help find the perfect amplifier that fits the needs of the system you want.
