Question stereo setup

this is what i have so far:
----kenwood KVT-715DVD with the LCD screen
----6.5" infinity components in the front (2-90rms 4 ohms)
----probably 6.75" kenwood coaxials in the rear seats
----most likely will do nothing with the rear sail panels in the trunk area
----1 for now but might use 2 10" RF HX2 DVC 500rms
----power the sub(s) with a fosgate mono amp pushing the same amount
----using streetwires to wire everything and will also be running all new speaker wire so i will not have to deal with the monsoon stuff, just unplug it
----thinking about using sound deadening in the car too

----first of all, i need some suggestions for powering the components, looking for a 2-ch amp because i plan to use the head unit to power the kenwood speakers?
----second, i kind of set in what i have already chosen but any suggestions or pics of what you have done are welcome.

if you want overall loudness, i would suggest the crystal ssx 615 for the rear......http://crystalmobilesound.com/Soundstage.htm
i would get a decent 2 channel amp and just run it @ 2 ohm stereo. these coax's will take the power. i have tested them in place of my dynaudio's that i run off a us amps tu600. these are awesome coax's in terms of power handling, loudness, and sound quality. they were run on an 80hz 12db slope. i even ran them down to 50. they took it pretty good, but really didn't achieve much of a lower extension dropping the xover point.

i would ditch the mid/rear speakers. You would be suprized what a set of door speakers and one good sub will do in an fbody. Im not a fan of infinity myself so heres what id do

JL audio 300.2 for the components
JL 500.1 for the sub
and as far as speakers, no one can tell you what you will like.
