Default buying an amp, need help

those are the speakers I want to be amplifying along with 1 or 2 10's. http://www.cardomain.com/item/INFREF6000CS

this is the amp i'm looking at.http://www.cardomain.com/item/MTXTA3404 Now it says it gives out 50 rms x4 channels @ 4 ohms. fine. my speakers say they put out 90 rms at an impedence of 4 ohms. I also want to connect two 10's. Will this amp adequetly power all these items or not? I've heard this amp puts out 100rms x 4 @ 2 ohms. Does this have any bearing on my 4 ohm speakers?

Should I be matching up the rms's of the amp and speakers or is it fine to go with an amp that puts out less..

What is the impedence of the subs? 200 watts between two subs is not a whole lot. If they are relatively high efficency then the subs may be ok.Its not essential to match rms imo. As long as you dont want more vol then the equipment safely put out its fine.


This guy will put out a bit more power
