:rasp:Make sure that you're quoting watts RMS not Maximum Power, or Peak Maximum Power Output (PMPO) as only RMS is the true power output/handling ability. The rest is bullshit "Max Power" figures that mean nothing.
The basic rule is: If they don't quote power figures in RMS, DO NOT BUY!!
If you haven't already, get onto www.TalkAudio.co.uk - you'll get some sound audio advice over there. A few of us on here are over there too!

Matching the amp to the speakers/sub is a good idea as you won't overpower it, but there are some good makes out there that can happily take more power than they're rated at
Plus, if you have a more powerful amp than the speaker/sub rating then the amp won't be working so hard and will be in less stressed because of it
I'm faaaar from an audio expert though. Log onto TA that I mentioned above and have a read of the forum. You sound like you have a half-reasonable budget so I'm quite sure that you'll be able to get something better than what you've suggested above, especially if you're willing to go secondhand

Components arent that hard to fit theres a guide on here on how to fit them somewhere or there was also gives a better sound going component route.
Avoid 6x9's as they generally sound naff they try and do everything and fall short in all areas. You dont even need rear speakers really to be honest decent set of components amped up with a nice amped sub will be very loud and sound great.
All i have and the only time i have my rear speakers on is when someone is in the back of my car. Other than that theres no point i cant hear them over the fronts anyway and rear speakers drag the soundstage back.
Some makes of speakers are actually under guarantee even above what they quote there power figures at because they usually can take a fair bit more.
Also as white16valver said better to run an amp at 3/4 of its max power than having it stressed out all the time.

Trophy
I don't understand why people have this loathing for 6"x9"s!?!?! I've got Infinitr Kappa components and Infinity Reference 6"x9"s in my Trophy and it sounds 1,000,000 times better than the OEM offering!

What do you mean by this? Don't you mean before clipping?wozzaa said:

Do you mean by full power, crank the gain up? I run all my amps just before clipping
I didn't want to say clipping in case I confused people LoLXXXChromeClioXXX said:

Sounds like me. Just had one of my XXX's reconed because i was clipping it with my epicentre.
Have you used a Epicentre. I find them good but it clips like a b1tch
