RE: an amp question

Get the wattage for the subs.
Or atleast the make and model of the subs so we can help you out somehow.

And don't get the peak wattage of any of your speakers, get the RMS wattage (Root Mean Sqare/Realistic Wattage). Like I bet your 6 x 9's aren't really 500 W RMS, probably more like 50-90 or something depending on your speakers

There's actually 6x9s with 1000 watts rms so that wouldn't surprise me
Had a pair myself

Repost this with the make/model of your coaxials and the make/model of your subwoofers.
