speaker wire?

I seen this done so many times when people run more than 4 speakers (2 front, 2 rear) off a regular ole deck by just spliting the speaker wire and running 2 negatives n 2 positives off one wire from the deck to two speakers.

Heres my question, i got a 50 x 4 peak deck, if I did that would the RMS power going to each speaker be greatly effected? I can't afford an amp right now, but I have alot of speakers that really don't need much pushing from an amp.

well since you have a 200watt deck and lets say you have 4 speakers, just divide 200 by 4 and you have 50watts to each speaker. if ya got 6 speakers take 200/6 then you got the watts to your speakers. yes you will have less power if you have more speakers on the same amp
