Default Planet Audio 5 channel amp?

Hello! What do you guys think abou this setup? I'm looking for a system around $1000 (uninstalled) and came up with these items.

Do you think the planet Audio 5 channel will be good enough? I dont need anything crazy and I also know that the power ratings for this amp are way above what it really is.

Head Unit
Pioneer AVH-P1400DVD

Amp
Planet Audio AC1800.5

Front and rears
Alpine SPR-17s
Alpine SPR-60

Sub
Jl 10W3v3-2 in a SRQ sealed enclosure (Roadster, behind driver seat)


Thanks!!!

1) The SRQ box in a roadster sounds like **** and rattles everything .
2) Buy an amplifier that is Cea-2006 compliant . That way the power numbers are true . Heck , Jensen makes a $120.00 (Ebay) 5 channel that is Cea-2006 compliant that I would use in a heartbeat over that Planet audio amp . Probably the best bang for your buck is the Alpine MRX-V70 for $265.00(Ebay)

What kind of sub enclosure would you recommend for the roadster?

Depends on how much skill and know how you have and are willing to do a little work . If your looking for an easy drop in box that produces very little in car bass and tons of rattles , then buy the SRQ box . Here is my Roadster

wow that looks amazing!! I'm not looking for too much. As long as it sounds better than the stock sub, I'm happy. I wouldn't mind having the Subs facing the interior like that but I really don't want to spend too much time and money on something like that.
