doesn't matter what channels of the amp you use , as long as you are sending the correctly crossed over signal to the channels you decided to use

this, although i believe it is normally the rear because on most amps the x10 feature is on the rear channels. if you are using your head unit you should be fine

You're using the crossovers on the deck, so honestly it does not matter. Even if the deck specifies that the tweets have to be on the front preouts and the mids have to be on the rear preouts, you can just flip the RCAs on either the amp or the HU, so that is not a big deal.

If you were using the crossover points on the amp, you would use the which ever set of channels uses the X10 filter so that you could cross the tweets properly. Usually this is the rear.

Yes, so how I have it set up right now my tweeters are on the rear (x10) xover channel.
