yea i thought about doing a 5 channel amp but i didn't notice any that had the power outputs i was looking for. they either had too much going to the doors and too little going to the sub or the opposite. i'll look a little closer when i get to work sunday

The Alpine PDX 5 has good output. You could run a 3 ohm component set to get a little more juice to the front if you don't bridge the 4 channels. Run a single 12" sub with two 4ohm voice coils to get your 2 ohm load on the 5th channel.

the speakers are 4 ohm tho? and i already have a sub and am happy with it, i don't need a larger one
