no, do yourself a favour and only use 2 pairs of speakers plus your subs....trust me on this one..in the case of speakers, less is sometimes better.

actually, if u read what he said, he only has 2 sets of speakers.....
front standard 16w speakers with standard tweeters.[ hence, a set of components]
and yes, u will have enuff power for all this gear. just use a good quality amp power kit,[ i use 4 guage] and u will be ok...
and if u need to up the alternator, then only do so if it is necessary, i still use my standard alt. in my vn.
i have pioneer h/u 4x50w, pioneer splits 220w, fusion splits 280w, 2x12 hertz subs 400w, dub monoblock amp 800w, and a kicker amp 400w. using 4 guage power an earth cables........
i dont have any troubles at all

wouldn't worry about things failing due to high power use. Spend the cash you said you don't have on getting the car to a point where it can handle all the gear you are getting that you can't afford.
