    I have 5.25 Infinity Reference component 75wrms 4ohm for the front and 6.5 Infinity Ref 2way 60wrms 2.65 ohms for the back. Pretty cheep I know, I'm mad I went so cheep but I'm gonna try to work with it. It sounds good so far but Id like to hook up a amp (if I can rind the right one). Any suggestions... And whats going to work well with 2.65 ohm for the back. I don't have a clue. Plez help me. Thanks

    If you want cheap, it's hard to go wrong with a new, but previous year's (or discontinued) MTX amp purchased on Ebay. I've got a Thunder 564 and 421D in my Prius, and a Thunder 342 (previously the Prius's subwoofer amp) and a 421D in my SUV. Dirt cheap, good performance for the price, and stable driving a 2 ohm load.

    Pretty much any mainstream 4 - channel amp should be able to handle your speakers. Most of them are good for 2 ohms per channel. A standard run-of-the-mill Alpine, like the MRP-250 would be decent.
