Lightning Audio S2.500.4 AMP

Heres the specs on this 4 channel amp...

4ohm load
40w x 2 FRONT
100w x 2 REAR

2ohm load
80w x 2 FRONT
200w x 2 REAR

4ohm load bridged (mono)
160w x 1 FRONT
400w x 1 REAR

I have a very hard time understanding this stuff because i'm new to car audio. Anyways, I have 2 decent 4 ohm 6x9's that can handle a lot of juice (100w rms). I want to power them to their full potential, but I don't want to bridge them because I want the stereo sound. I have two 12" single 4 ohm voice coil subs that I would LIKE to bridge.

Given those specs, and the way I want to wire my system, how much power exactly are the 6x9's going to get, and how much power are the subs going to get??

your 6x9s i assume will be on the front channels, so they will get 40watts each.

if u wire ur subs in series so its 8 ohm it will get 200 watt if u wire them to 2 ohm parralell then u should have ova 400 watts but i dont think those amps r stabl;e at unda 4 ohm

or u can run it unbridged. and get the 200 per sub which i think is your best bet, for sound qaulity and longevity
