6 speakers off of a 4 channel amp?

[5.0coug 10+ year member]

My current set up is infinity ref 6x9 in the doors, 5x7 in back panel, and i have an extra set of 6.5"s n im getting a 4channel infinity rated at 111rmsx 4 at 4 ohm, i was thinking about putting the 6.5's in the back windshield shelf and running the 6.5's and 5x7s from the rear output of the amp since they only handle about 60rms each, is this doable?

Are we talking about the Infinity Reference 7541a amp?

The RMS output rating on that per channel @ 2 Ohm stereo is 139 watts.

139/2 = 69.5 watts.

If each speaker hooked in parallel to those two channels will safely accept 65-70 watts RMS you should be fine.

oh no i meant install them, theres already holes in the deck and looks like a set of 6.5's should fit just right and yes the Infinity Reference 7541a
