It's very easy to wire things up on the X since everything you need (signals, control, and power) are already right in the trunk! You just have to be patient and careful with where you taps and how you run the wires...otherwise, you run the risk of introducing noise (most likely engine hum) into the system.
That amp would work just fine as well for powering just the sub. I just really like the PDX amps, they don't make a lot of heat, so they can be closed up. Like in the left storage area.
