[QUOTE="hooppro, post: 508562, member: 555405"] Ok, I have done a search on this and found all kinds of answers so i just wanted my questions to get cleared up. HOW SHOULD I WIRE 4 SPEAKERS USING A 2 CHANNEL AMP? I have a Rockford 351s, a CDT 61a component set (90 watts rms) for up front and CDT 6x rear fill (40 watts rms). My question is how should i wire these up? option 1.) should i bridge the amp and give the 61a's 90 a piece at 4ohms and run the 6x's off the HU? (a pioneer deh860) opition 2.) Should i wire the front and rear speakers in parallel and send each side 170 watts at 2 ohms? (my question about this is will the 6x's be drawing too much power or will the extra power just be pulled away by the 61a's?) opition 3.) should i the the 61a's in parallel and connect them to the left channel and the 6x's in parallel to the right channel? (here i will no longer have stereo cound tho) i've heard many contridicting opinions so please help me out. thanks [/QUOTE]
