Matt:

I believe the Kenwood DNX 5140 HU is rated 50 watts peak, but I do not know it RMS rating. Does this HU have adequate power to run a set of Polk MM6501 speakers? If not, will a Alpine KTP -445 amp rated at 45 RMS plug directly into the back of a Kenwood DNX 5140 HU?

The kenwood usually does 22 watts RMS and is not recommended to run polk mm directly. The alpine ktp445 pack you speak of will NOT plug directly into the kenwood and will require time to wire it into both harnesses for it to work.
