@filcord, an amp is not exactly a necessity for components (for eg. the GTO507s or 607s or the CS2165c). The HU will drive them reasonably well, if you do not listen to them at high volumes. But they will sound a lot better (at low & high volumes) when you amp them.

If you don't plan to get an amp at all, get the JBL CS2165c (6.5" 2-way comps). I think they will take the lower power of the HU better than the GTOs. The GTOs will sound better if you plan to amp the comps later.
