Do the speakers have their own amps?

1. I do not have factory speakers. I have Polk MoMo speakers. Yes, all 4 of them. They come with tweeters too. Know what they are??

2. Like I said earlier, I am running 2...that's right TWO...as in, more than 1 AMP. 1 is hooked up to my speakers and the other one is hooked up to my sub. "OOOOO "

3. As for speakers and subs, they have a thing called 5 CH AMP. Ever heard of that?? It has 4 ch for speakers and 1 ch for AMP. Go to crutchfield.com and you'll find it there.

4. I was under the impression that the Infinity speakers can handle at least 50rms wattage. I am not sure if they're made out of paper like those cheap factory speakers are.
I don't have the infinity system, but I'm willing to bet teh factory speakers are junk no matter what. Infinity or stock.... Sure, they may be an upgrade over what comes standard, but I doubt it's much of an upgrade. Also, I really doubt they'll handle much more power than what is given to them from the factory.


As for the amplifiers, I didn't read the second model number. My bad.



And yes, I'm familiar with 5 channel amplifiers.

haha I was just messing with you. I wasn't so clear on my part anyway. I just typed what I was thinking but reading it again, I know even I'd think what u thought. Believe me, fist thing I change on my system is the system and the speakers. Those must be done together.
