[QUOTE="markml0528, post: 8057908, member: 652427"] I went into a local car audio shop today he said that if I don't care about fade, and just want to be able to adjust left and right channel, that I can just use two channels for my front door speakers and my rear deck speakers, and then bridge the last two channels for a sub if I wanted. Is this correct? Looking at Pioneer GM-D8604. It does 4 ohms: 100 watts x 4 chan, 2 ohms: 150 watts x 4 chan. So I hook up my two front door speakers (75 RMS each) to one channel, and my two rear deck speakers (100 RMS each) to another channel, and then if I wanted to I could bridge the remaining two channels for a sub? This doesn't make sense to me. The amp can only put out 150 watts per channel. The two front door speakers will pull 150, and the two rear decks will be pulling 200... either way the amp will be maxed out. [/QUOTE]
