future system

ok, i just built my first system ever, and im not so much dissapointed as i am in need of something bigger. So im in the process of selling this last system and buying something way louder. Here's what i am thinking, can someone tell me any problems i might have with it or any better suggestions? thanks
2 Eclipse 88120 DVC
AUDIOBAHN 2400 WATT A2300HCQ AMP
Focal 165K2 Polykevlar 6.5" Components
Audiobahn A435HCQ Amp (for components)
PIONEER DEH-P9400MP
AUDIOBAHN 1 FARAD CAPACITOR

All those seem to be really big names in car stereo so i went big and with some big names. that should satisfy me for now. let me know what you think

Sounds good except for the amps.. There no chance in hell your 70 amp alternator can support a 2400watt High Current amp...ALso 2400 watts will kill those eclipse alums. If you want mad power that you electrical system can take get a DEI 1100D and a DEI400 for your mids Otherwise sounds good.

Doesnt it say, right there in the iten description ON THE AUCTION PAGE that it is NOT? Doesn't it say that that auction is for the 500 series? yes, the picture is correct for what Mohawk suggested (at least I think it is) but that auction is NOT for THAT amp... so be careful

The ebay auction is for the older style 500, the picture however is the older style 1100d. Directed amps have a new look. You can check them out at www.directed.com

don't get me wrong, i like audiobahn, i've got their subs, and they are hardcore... but i never seemed to like their amps or their speakers... some companies are just like that, they make one thing good, and then they slack on the rest... i personally want audiobahn's AWT34... 34 inch 5000 rms sub =)... i can rip the back of my LX sedan apart to fit one 34" sub
