I'd strongly recommend you flip that around and power your fronts with the amp and the rears with the deck (if you have the rears on at all... mine are not even connected). You should want most of the sound coming from in front of you. And having the rears louder than the front will absolutely destroy any chance of fully enjoying Yo Yo Ma or any other classical performance you may want to listen to.






Thanks for that advice. Believe it or don't, I was actually thinking about my setup this morning, wondering if I wasn't balancing out the power very well...sort of mimicking my friends Mach 1000 system, on a smaller scale. When he turns on the two 12" subs, it seems pretty unbalanced to me.
