Question Need help w/ my audio setup... HELP! :)

I am so tired of my stock stereo in my daily (2004 Tundra Access Cab)... so i upgraded.

Eclipse HU
4 Guage
TMA 360.2 amp
(2) 8W1v2-4 8" subs

and then my friend gave me some PG Titanium 6.5 components.. so now i need another amp. It is for my truck and i only plan to change the front speakers only.

http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...I6ELITE+-.html
Complete 6-1/2" Component System (2 midwoofers, 2 tweeters, 4-chan crossover)
Power Handling: 300 watts RMS
Ultra-thin mounting depth (neodynium magnets)
3" voice coil
Audiophile grade external crossover
Solid one piece polypropylene cone/dust cap assembly
FEA optimized inner-radial neodynium motor structure
Custom cast aluminum basket
Midrange sensitivity: 89dB (1W/1M)
28mm hand doped tweeters
Tweeter sensitivity: 90dB (1W/1M)


Would it be weird if i only hook up the front components to a 2 channel amp and leave the rears stock while being powered by HU?

I was thinking about this amp... since it is kinda the same PG lineage...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...#ht_2289wt_965

NEW PHOENIX GOLD RYVAL V1502 2-Channel Class AB Amplifier
RMS Power Range : 150 Watts (4 ohms), 225 Watts (2 ohms)
Bridged: 500 Watts x 1 channel (4 ohms)
Dimensions: 13.15" L x 9.30" W x 2.25" H


Pls help!

I say skip that pg amp and get something a little older, like a phoenix gold ti amp, it looks like the crossover for the components you got, trust me stay away from all the new cheap stuff that the companies we knew and loved are now making, most of them got bought out and are made overseas, and about the rear stage i say see how it sounds after the front install and make your decision at that time, in most cases you dont need rear fill other then for back seat passengers, it kinda screws up the front sound stage having rear fill anyway,
but thats my two pennies do with it what you please, and good luck on your install
