go here for info on car audio...

the headunit is probably 50 x 4 peak (or 22 x 4 RMS)
the amp is probably 50 x 2 RMS
h: 22 x 4 = 88 RMS
a: 50 x 2 = 100 RMS
its best to look at the RMS not the peak. the headunit is 4 channels but is very limited cause you can't bridge it or anything. the amp is 2 channels but there are several ways of wiring it. the sound quality doesn't depend on the watts but on other things. i'm guessing your new to this so just goto the site i linked you to, it should answer alot of your questions. kinda confusing at first but after awhile it'll sink in...
