hi, i got a 98 bmw 318ti.
running a 10" phoenix gold sub through a jbl amp
Infinity kappa 693.9I(110W RMS/330 MAX) 6x9s for the rear.
and infinity kappa 52.9I(55RMS/165 MAX) 5.25 for my kickpanels
my doors are stock(2 tweeters on each door)
my deck is sumthing similar to a Kenwood KDC-MP208.

my question is im looking to buy this amp to power my rear and kickpannel speakers. its a kenwood KACX40. Am i over doing it with this amp, if so which 4 channel amp should i be looking for. thanks for ur help.

i wouldnt buy any kenwood amp. they have been known to have issues overheating. i would look at something like a kicker zx350.4

Agreed kenwood amps are terrible. Alpine make some very nice 4 channel amps also, look into those.


But if you're looking for better sound from those speakers it's not going to happen just from an amplifier...... to put it bluntly the kappas just suck in every aspect. I'd look into better speakers next.
