Well your first problem is listening to the people at Best Buy. They aren't paid to know car audio. They are paid to sell it. Most of them have never actually done an install themselves in their lives. I realize some are knowledgeable, but in general never let Best Buy, Circuit City, or other chains of the like tell you about car audio.

I've been building car audio setups for 10+ years so I know what I'm talking about. I'm not an expert by any means, but I won't give you bad information, that much I can assure you.

As for underpowering, yes, it's an easy way to blow an amp. However, if you know how to set gains you can basically use almost any amp with almost any speakers. That, coupled with the fact that those Memphis amps are most likely grossly under rated, I think you'd be fine even with the MCH600. I've been running 500watt RMS Pioneers @ 250watts RMS (or less) for 3 years and never had a problem. It just depends on how loud you want things to be. If you want LOUD, then go with the MCH1300. That amp would make those subs retarded loud, that much I know. And Memphis makes top quality stuff, especially the Memphis Belles.

For the speakers, just omit those 4x6's. Rear fill kills any chance of getting a good sounding setup unless you go active tuning and have the knowledge to do so. Get 1 good component set. It will come with 6.5" drivers, crossovers, and tweeters. It will drastically improve your sound stage and sound quality. With a nice set of 6.5 drivers, tweeters, and those subs, you'll have a great sounding setup. Especially if you go with a quality amp.
