best way to wire this?

[blazinb2000 10+ year member]

I am looking to get a set of components for my front doors. I will not be running any rear fill. I am looking to get 100rms per channel at 4ohms. I am thinking about a kicker zx200.4. My question is can I bridge each pair of channels and run them to the speakers or can I only use a 2channel amp since I only have one set of speakers? Also how would I wire up the rca's? Do I need a 4channel set of rca's or a 2channel set? I am confused on this but I am sure it is easy for someone else to explain.

Most component speakers are 4ohms. Most 4 channel amps when bridged can power down to a 4ohm load, so it's a good way to get maximum power out of an amp and yes a 4 channel bridged can power one set of speakers. Usually you can use one set of rca's (1 left, 1 right plug) with a y-splitter at the end of each rca plug. Check the amp's manual to be sure.

What you need to know is the basics of car audio. Maybe do a google on "basics of car audio" or something like that so you can see diagrams and understand what is is that you need to do. I'm not bashing, just letting you know you should take an hr or 2 just to understand what is what.
