[QUOTE="llpatt97, post: 8357442, member: 664902"] I'm a teenager in high school with a cheap setup in my car. I realize my components are low end and bad but don't try and bash me too hard. Anyways, I have a 4 channel 1000w what amp... which is 90w RMS a channel. Currently I am running 2 6x9s, which are 60w rms each, on individual channels and a sub that is bridged on 2 channels and is 150w rms. Recently my sub's voice coil broke and im looking on replacing it with a alpine bass line 10inch seen here: ([URL="http://www.amazon.com/Alpine-SWA-10S4-Watts-Series-Subwoofer/dp/B00DXYMI78"]http://www.amazon.com/Alpine-SWA-10S4-Watts-Series-Subwoofer/dp/B00DXYMI78[/URL]). -My first question is will I have enough power to run this sub bridged? -My second question is do I also have enough power to hook up 2 small 5.25in speakers on the same channels as my 6x9s. -And finally when setting gain with a multimeter on channels that have multiply speakers... do you add ohms or would 2 4ohm speakers be 2 ohms when calculating for ohms law for a volt meter.
