    Amp Bridgeing Question

    My purpose is to get more power to my front components. My amp is rated 4x130 1x400 @ 4ohm, 4 x 240 1x 500 @ 2ohm and 3 x 400 @ 4ohm bridged. Before I did all this I figured bridgeing the amp would be viable so i could send 400 watts to each of the fornt speakers and then send 400 to the sub...
