I'd have to check into the price/performance of the 2 vs 4 channel
amps... my pyles handle 210RMS (12") and 120RMS (8") so I wanna get some
amps that are about 200 and 100 RMS respectively for the speakers.  Then
about 40 watt/channel for the interior speakers (4 midrange + 4 tweets)
I have a 4 way x-over so I wanna keep all the channels going to
different sets of speakers.  No passive xovers.  BTW, my 12's are tuned
for 27Hz, and have a -3db point around 25hz freeair.  In-car would be a
lot lower than that.  Just that my Thump amps' THD increases as the Hz
gets lower... bummer.
