let me see if I understood. you have 4 speakers (2 pairs) and a 1 sub. you also have a 4cha amp. so you want to know if you can connect all these speakers and sub to that one 4 cha amp?

that's right !

you can do it if you want. I wouldnt do it though. you can put front speaker on cha 1 and rear speakers on cha 2 and then bridge cha 3&4 for the sub. That is not ideal though. I would suggest you get a 2nd amp for the sub!

where do you see mono rca? if you're talking about the rca plugs on the right, thats in case you want to add a 2nd amp you dont have to run rca from the HU. you can run it from that amp to the other amp.

what if i have 4 speakers 60 w rms each and amplifier 4 cha 120 w rms per out

i'll put 2 fronts on 1 cha 2 rears on 2 cha total 240w it should be normal sound right?

why not just buy a seperate amp to run your sub?

Try running your rear speakers off the headunit and bridge ch3&4 from the amp to your sub. That would prolly be best since you're on a budget.
