Double Check Gains

[naiku 10+ year member]

I have read the sticky about calculating gains, but want someone who has done this before to confirm that I have calculated these right. Where my amp will be positioned its not going to be easy to adjust them, so I want to get them right first time.

I have a 4 channel amp that puts out 50RMS @ 4 ohms / 4 x 75 @ 2 ohms / 2 x 150 Bridged at 4 ohms, I calculated the following:

Front 2 channels will be hooked up at 2 ohms so sqrt (75 *2) = 12.25 volts

Rear 2 channels will be bridged at 4 ohms so sqrt (150 * 4) = 24.49 volts

Can someone confirm that these are correct?

Thanks.
