jay, you running stock speakers up front? or are you planning to do more? honestly, with a stock system and adding a sub, 500 will be way too much. the fronts just can't keep up in the mid/high portion to have that much bass.
but if you wanted to upgrade later, or even if you didn't, a 500/1 amp would be good. just keep the gain down REAL low in the meantime. otherwise you are going to hear bass, and that's about it

agreed, the stock speakers suck when you start to put them up against a more serious/professional style system.
