also ....
what do i need in addition to a amp wiring kit in order to bridge ?
can you turn the wattage down ? (e.g. so i can run comps at 90w Rms)

Cheers Guys

yeah off that you can run 1 sub and a pair of components, you dont need anything extra to bridge as you just wire the sub into + or - of channel 1 then the + or - of channel 2.

yeah you turn the gain down so you dont blow the comps up.

yes you can you run the amp in three channel mode as such

as you said it will be 1x278 and 2x111W RMS

and yes you can turn the gains down to drive the 90W RMS comps

cheers bud good i have so many question sorry
is that 90w in each channel or 45w in each ?
also would 278w rms enough bass ?
can you alter the setting on the sub even with the comps on the same amp ?

will probs be 90w each from what youve said.
that me be enough power, it depends on the sub you want to run and just because the rms higher does not mean that its louder
yes you should be able to change them in pairs so one pair for the comps (1 each) and one pair (bridged to make one channel) for the sub.

you can run a sub from 2 channels, and 2 comps from the other 2 channels. the comps arent drawn on, but you just use it normally

do comps wire up the same or just a + and - for each side
Martin

comps wire up like normal.

each channel, for exmple, channel 3 on this amp, has a + and a -.
you wire the comp + to the amp +
and the comp - to the amp -

this is one component,wired into one channel. then do the same on channel 4
