guys, just wanna ask how do i connect my seperates to get the 110watts rms x 4 @ 2ohms. the specs given by the manufacturer. my amp is a hifonics zeus 5ch amp...power rating @ 4ohms is 55watts x 4 + 200watts x 1 and @ 2ohms is 110watts x 4 + 300watts x 1...i have 1 set of jbl gt seperates....thanks in advance

Your speaker's impedance needs to be at 2 ohms to get that power.

Impedance is determined by the many factors. With your components, it's not likely you can run at 2 ohms. Most component sets are 4 ohm nominal rating, so that's all you can do. Try bridging those 4 channels to 2, running one channel to each of the passive crossovers on your component set, and you will likely get about the same amount of power.

Just looked it up. According to Maxxsonics, that amp does 220x2 @ 4 ohms, so if you bridge it, you'll be in the same ballpark.
