MTX Thunder 404 and Thunder 282. I have MB Quart 6.5" components in the doors, Alpine triax 6x9's in the rear deck. These are currently running off of my 404 (50 watts rms per). Just bought a 282 and am looking to add a sub. I also feel I need more power to the components. Here are my options as I see them:
1. Run the components off of the 282 (70 rms). Use the 404 to run the rears (50 rms) and bridge one output for a single 12 (200 rms).
2. Run the doors and rears from the 404 and run a single 12 from the 282 (280 rms).
3. Run the doors with the 282 and bridge both ends of the 404 to a pair of 10's (200 rms to each). In this case I would put the rears back on head unit power (11 rms).
For subs I am looking at JL's, ID, or Atlas.
Opinions? Vehicle is a 97 Saab 4 door hatchback.
Thanks in advance!

Did I mention I am planning to run a pair of Lanzar 15's with the 282?
