Wire them all in parallel. Final load will be 1 Ohm. Use a multimeter to get 28v AC from the amp. That will give each speaker around 200 watts RMS.
and what if i want to connect the 4 180 watt rms speakers to a banda 800.4 amp with below specs:
35652


do you think that i can bridge the 4 channel to get 2 channel of 2 x 400 watt rms. then connect 2 speaker in parralel on each channel to get 200 watt per speaker?

Supposedly it is safe to do so. It says 2x400wRMS @2 Ohms AND 2x400wRMS @4 Ohms. I thought only JL Audio amps did this magic.

HAHAHA. thought that i had to invest more money go get amp giving 200 watt per channel .but seems that the banda amp can do the work and give enough wattage to make the speakers scream. hope that the amp will be durable and that the speaker gets what they want and do not blow.

Better off using the 4 channel, those smaller speakers are not meant for 4 ohm or 2 ohm unless they were made for it. So stick with a 4 channel instead and run them at 4 ohms otherwise you will blow them up. What speakers exactly and specs? If that 180 is at max then you want to keep them at RMS levels not the max it can handle.

So I have four Skar super bullet tweeters 200 rms and 400max and I want to power all of them off of a 750 ZX750.1 amplifier. Is this possible

No. That is a subwoofer amp. Will only play UP to 200hz which is way to low for tweeters.
