lets say i have speakers that are 2 ohms...and they are 90 RMS each...and i have 4 of them

i have a 4 channel amp that is 50 RMS times 4 @ 2 ohms per channel

since the speakers will be hooked up to the amp...am i even getting the rated power from the head unti ....or is the only thinbg powering the speakers the amp?

i need to know this so i know what power range amp i should get

right. if you have four speakers and one 4-way amp then the HU's built in amp is not used.
