When using a 4 channel amp. What is the best way to wire the Front and Back speakers and a Sub in bridge mode.
Assuming we connect the Sub by bridging two channels. Can we connect the remaining two channels in parallel to say right (front and back) and Left (front and back)
Of is it advisable to wire the Fronts form the Amp and the Backs from the head unit.
What would match better or what is the rigtht wiring strategy to ensure good matching and performance. Assumimg we use a 150 W per channel at 4 ohms to drive the fronts and backs of 60 W at 4 ohms
