Hello, I new to the forum and fairly new to car audio. Here to learn and understand setup selection and installation.

Going to currently work on what setup I have as of now and build up as time goes.

Currently I have :

Vehicle : 1984 Chevrolet Monte Carlo

Front speakers : 3.5 Cerwin Vega H735/2-Way/4ohm/30W RMS each

Rear speakers : 4x10 Cerwin Vega H7410/2-Way/4ohm/50w RMS each.

Amp : Cerwin Vega CVP1200.4D/1200w/4 Channel/2-Ohm Stereo, 4-Ohm Bridged Full Range/75Wx4@2Ω RMS; 55Wx4@4Ω RMS

I also have a pair of Cerwin Vega H7694 6x9's that I want to add to this setup...4-way/ 4ohm/75w RMS each.

I want to stick with the Cerwin Vega brand for my entire sound system.

I'm wanting to wire those 6 4ohm speakers listed to my 2-4 ohm 4 channel amp listed.

Will my amp power the 6 speakers without damage to the amp and/or speakers ?

With the specs given, which 6 speaker to 4 channel amp wiring diagram should I follow below ?

Example 1.
For clarity, why not example 2 ?

Example 2 is 2 ohm...my speakers are 4 ohm and amp uses less RMS wattage with the bridged 4 ohm full range operation...

Why shouldn't I bridge and use 4 ohm full range operation instead of 2 ohm stereo ?

Before just now receiving the 6x9's, I had a Kicker 6x9 wired like example 1 to my rear right 4x10...

That wiring blew both the 6x9 and the 4x10, and I think front right and rear right channels on the amp. Haven't tested the amp channels, but I'm sure they're blown...pushes out/up the good 4x10 speaker surface I have and stays there.

Someone mentioned I threw off the ohm's by adding that Kicker 6x9 and blew out the entire left side, amp channels and speakers.
