Im looking to install a system in my car. With plans to buy the custom sub enclosures made by 4080, i plan to buy jl 10w3v2's. i also want to change my speakers in my car, preferrably mb quartz. My question is, is there a 5-channel amp that is suffiecient enough to power 2 jl 10w3v2's and upgraded speakers in my car? I was looking into the jl 500/5, but am not sure if i will have enough power to run the subs. Any suggestions?

Here's my thoughts:
if you go with MB Quart speakers...you'll need some serious power anyway, just for those speakers....so any way you look at it, you're probably looking at about 3 amps.

MB quarts powered by JL 450 and 300 (300 - 150x2 for rear L/R speakers, 450 - 150x3 for front L/R and center channel)

for subs...you may just want to consider 1 JL 10w6v2. with a JL 500/1. Otherwise, if you are stuck on your current sub choice, you can do it with the 500/1 anyway, or if you really want more power, a 1000/1 but that's more than those subs need.

I had a jl 10w6v2 for a couple months, then i sold it. the sub hit really hard and clean, but i've been looking into the enclosures by 4080. With those enclosures, i will need two subs, so im leaning towards the 10 w3v2.

I am have been in the car audio business for around two years now, doing my own installs and everything. With your MB's you do not need rear fill, keep the money from what you would use on the rear fill and buy a better set of MB components, then you need to buy a two channel amp to power the components, around 100-150watts x 2 @ 4ohms.

For the subwoofer, you want to have two 10W3V2's if I am correct they take around 300W RMS each, so you'll want to buy a mono amp that puts out 600x1 @ whichever ohm series you have since you have your choice of dvc 2ohm, 4ohm, or 6ohm configs for the sub.

If you need anymore help, just let me know.
