hey guys i have a power acoustic 400w 4 channel amp runnin 2 sony X-plod 4channel 6x9s, and 2 x-plod 5 1/4s with 2 small tweeters up front.(the 5.25s are in the dash and the tweeters are in the console) on my amp i have one channel per each 6x9 and one channel per 5 1/4 and tweeter. however i just got 2 8inch subs. is there any way i can run all my speakers on my current amp? or do i need to find another amp to run my subs and leave my current amp and speakers alone? i dont know a bunch about sound systems(most of my mods are to go faster ) but i did put all the stuff i have in myself and i can do a good job wiring and installing. i just need to know what the easiest way of adding these 2 subs will be. thanks alot guys!

 

If the amp can take it, run the right speakers off 1 channel, the left off channel 2, and bridge 3&4 for the subs.

 

so how do i tell if the amp will handle it? i dont wanna fry it and then realize "gee i guess it wont handle it" LOL

 

you dont wanna run subs on a 4 channel amp, do yourself a favor and pick up a mono power amp.

it will save you a lot of hassel and sound a lot better.

 

It will say in the instructions if you have them. Is the amp 2 ohm stable in stereo mode?
