2 amps. ok. Now I need to figure out what would be a good set up.

The Infinity's have a peak pwr of 270w and the RF 8's have a peak pwr of 400w. That doesnt mean that i need to push them to that amount does it? I want to at least hit 80-90% of that amount (200-250w/300-350w).

What will be better.....bridging them for 2ohm or running them straight 2 channels @ 4ohm?

Don't concern yourself with peak power. Look at RMS power. Find an amp with an RMS close to that of the speakers. A little over or under won't matter much though I would go under before going over.

ok. the Infinity's have a RMS of 90, does that mean I can safely push 100w per woofer/tweeter combo?

Depends on the amp. But 4ohm would most likely give you the best SQ.

"Bose" is not neccesarily plastered all over. My '03 GTP has it marked on four speaker locations but there is no reference to it on the HU or on the rear amp. Or does this mean that it is a combination of sane and insane?

Even ONE "Bose" badge is "plastered all over as far as I am concerned"! Bose or not? - Page 2 - Last Post -- posted image.

Overpriced crapola...

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Grrrr. what a sleazy way of getting me to look at a post, here I thought a person actually wanted to buy a BOSE system.
