questions on soundsystem/subs

ok... being as I was having problems with my soundsystem and totally burned out my backspeakers and am now selling my old amp, the time has come to buy a whole freakin new one for the third time... wanna make sure I get this right finally

Anyway, I'm gonna have four infinity kappa 63.7i speakers, an amp for them (not sure which one yet) suggestions on what would be a right amp would be great, and hoping to have two 12" subs (preferably infinity perfect).

Specs on the speakers:
» 3-way car speakers for 6-1/2" and 6-3/4" locations (pair)
» 2-ohm impedance
» Plus One woven-glass-fiber woofer cone with rubber surround
» EMIT tweeter and M.M.D. midrange
» computer-optimized outboard crossovers with tweeter level control
» power range: 2-75 watts RMS (225 watts peak power)
» frequency response: 45-25,000 Hz
» sensitivity: 95 dB

Specs on the subs:
12" 4-ohm subwoofer
aluminum cone with high-roll butyl-rubber surround
massive cast-aluminum basket
suitable for free-air use (handles up to 175 watts in free-air applications)
power range: 75-350 watts RMS (1,400 watts peak power)
frequency response: 18-200 Hz
sensitivity: 96 dB
top mount depth: 6-1/8"
sealed box volume: 1.0 cu. ft.
ported box volume: 1.75 cu. ft.

Questions are: what are the right amps for the speakers and subs? Also, are there any other places to mount the subs rather than putting them in the t-top spot?? Being as my cars t-tops are never on in the summer, this is a question that's puzzling me. If there's no other mounting option, then I'm not sure that subs are even an option for me.

Just my thought, save urself some money and get what I got... which was Clarion speakers instead of Kappa's. Tsar can vouche for the sound, lots of bass and great ranges.

Social Networks:

those speakers will be leaps and bounds better then the clarions. they will also be much more expensive though. infinity speakers are hard to beat at that price. great bass and amazing highs. definately a go on those speakers.

as for subs, i would get the infinity perfects. if you can, bump it up to the VQs. they are awesome subs for the price. if not, the regular perfects will do.

enclosure- subthump.com

i'm sellin my old amps as well

Yeah, sub-thump makes a T-top box, that holds 2 12's and still leaves you t-top storage.
