Stop worrying about the rear speakers, concentrate on the front sound stage. At concerts the don't put speakers behind you. I have a similar speaker setup with Audison speakers and processor with an Alpine 150w x 4 amp. Sounds amazing with top up or down with plenty of bass. Nice carbon option, very rare. My son had just the steering wheel in red on his 00.

Are we back in the 70's? I was but recording and sound technologies have advanced. My rear speakers are disconnected and the system sounds great. Back in the 70's our main speakers were in the rear deck but not anymore. Stop by a high end retailer and they can explain the current sound system designs. They're no longer like back in the 70's.

I only have front sound stage as well doors are mid woofer and sub. Use the pioneer as the control. Sounds great dont miss rear speakers.

Impedence

The Bose system is wired to 2 ohms. The rear box may be 1 ohm. That let them get away with a small 5 channel amp.
