I am looking to use the Focal Utopia 165W's for the front and the Focal Polykevlar 165K2's for the rear and (1) 12" Cerwin Vega A.I. series subwoofer. I found that JL Audio has a 500/5 amp which puts out 100watts to each front channel, 25 watts to each rear channel and 250 watts to the subwoofer. Is there any guidelines as to how much wattage the rear speakers should have as compared to the front speakers? I do have a couple amps left over from a previous system that I would have to check the power ratings on. One of them is a Pioneer Premier GMX-904 and the other is a Kenwood 2 channel.
