Yeah it looks like it puts out 120x1 with 240x1 max in bridged.

Ok I didn't find it on the kenwoodusa website but I found it here

Here's what it stated:

"Key Features:

40 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms
60 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms
120 watts RMS x 1 bridged output at 4 ohms
stereo or bridged mono output
4-ohm stable in bridged mode"

If your going to hook it up just to one subwoofer wouldn't it just be easier just to buy a mono amp instead of a 2 channel? Maybe something like this
