yep. its probably going to be more around 80-85rms in reality though. hifonics doesn't overrate their stuff a ton but they do some.

well i'm going for best sound quality here, not so much loudness. and my only point for an amp is to not ruin my speakers life lol
so as far as quality, would bridging all speakers onto that MB or regular setup on the HiFi/diff amp be better?

bridging the 2 channel i linked was kind of a last resort thing i wouldnt do it unless i had to pretty much. that hifonics is just going to be a better overall deal for you. mb quart is going to have the better build and sound quality but its going to have less power. the hifoincs will be 3/4 the mb quart quality but have more power.

hifonics is okay and will probably be the better overall deal for you given your budget.

mkay, gotcha
thanks again, you've been quite informational. i can go into this project a little more prepared and confident.

oh another question, i'm gonna put the amp behind my seat since the smart is so limited on space. i obviously can't have wires going from door to amp right? how does that work lol
like i said, friend is gonna do alot of the wiring work but i like to be informed

edit: nvm found a video heh

essentially you will cut the wires under the dash that attach to the head unit. you will then run speaker wire from the amp to those cut wires under the dash.

idk how the interior is put together but you just need to find a way to hide the wires.

depends on how accessible under the dash it.

are you still using the stock head unit?

does it have rca outputs on the back?
