2x75 is fine for front or rear fill, while the 2x175 should - nay must - be bridged and run a sub or two.

However if you woun't be getting a sub, put the better sounding (not always the most powerful) amp on the fronts as that's the most important part.

I'm running a 1x1000W monoblock powering 2x10"s, and a 4x100 powering 6' 3-ways front and rear. Does good.

wouldn't hurt. but unless you're noticing things like you're lights dimming on big bass hits, then it won't help either.
