 audiophyle247 has a point but if you set it up like that all the sound will be coming from behind instead of in front so you sound imaging will be incorrect. If you want correct imaging all your sound should come from the front and the rears should just be used for fill.

I got a 400.4 rockford and just some cheap pioneers in the front and some cerwin vega in the rear both 6.5 It is loud as hell and without distortion, you sure your really need to bridge it to get that much power? As long as your deck is putting out 4v or higher preout and you set your gains just tad you should be able to crank to the point of pain without distorion

oh i'm sure, i like it loooooooooooud. i know it's not healthy, but sometimes when i have it pounding for a litte to long, when i get outta my car, my ears ring for about 25 minutes. i'll probably be deaf by the age of 21 but what can you do. they are extremly loud as is, and yeah my deck puts out 4v, if not more at its peak, but i just feel that since my components have such potential, why not max them out?

and to audiophyle, don't you mean run the fronts normal, and just bridge the rears? that will give you a 2 ohm load,, whats all this gibberishabout front pos rear neg? that wont work... and even if it is all mono, it will still be loud enough that you wont be able to tell where the sound is coming from anyways

and 1 more thing. it is already to the point where it is PAINFUL, with NO distortion, what so ever... but i know that as soon as i get my other amp in there the bass is gonna cancel most of it out anyways, i have 3 10" JL W3 and my since my sony amp "xploded" my christmas present is a rockford 1000 bd. i just want it as loud as possible, thats how i like it

and that coment about how to much power doesnt ruin speakers... so it will be okay if i have 200 w rms running to 6x9's that can handle 100 rms? there is a breaking point. i know that UNDERPOWERING speakers is the worst thing you can do, especialy to quality products that are designed to go loud, for example running my ultimates off my jvc deck.. it's not gonna work. but just how high can my gain go before i bust something?
