Amps:
An amplifier does exactly what the word implies. It amplifies/ enhances your music. The enhancement is along the lines of making your music louder and more clear no matter what the volume is set to while getting rid of any type of distortion.
Amp Types:
Mono, 1 2 3 4 5... channel amps refer to how many watts of power a particular amp supplies over an "X" amount of channels. For example, an amp has 100 watts and its is a 4 channel amp then it will provide 25 watts on each of its four channels, splitting up the wattage.
You use mono amps to power subwoofers
You use multi-channel amps to power speakers
Also, when choosing amps for speakers and subs, make sure the rms wattage matches between the amp powering the subwoofer
and matches between the amp powering the speakers.
And one of the main things to know when considering amps, speakers, and subwoofers is the RMS wattage. The RMS wattage tells you how many amps a product can provide or take without pushing the risk of frying that product. Don't pay attention to the max wattage because it means nothing (it's only for advertisement).
If you have a one (mono) channel amp with a RMS wattage of 1000 and you want to power 2 sub then each sub would get 500 watts RMS each.
Crossover:
Is simply a filter. It is a device that regulates high, low and mid range frequencies and sends these frequencies to the proper speaker (mid-range freq) subwoofer (low freq) or tweeter (high freq) in order to create better sound quality.
As far as the number of amps you can have all depends on your power supply (alternator and battery) and bank account. Most people have 1-3 amps on average (one and two is more likely).
I hope this helps and good luck!
