i have a 2 channel amp. and was wondering if i can hook up my 2 front speakers in parallel and my 2 rear speakers in parallel and run them off of 1 channel each? the speakers are all 4ohm and the amp is 2 ohm stable and puts out 75w x 2 at 2 ohms. also the rear speakers are each rated at 100w rms but the fronts are each only 60 rms, 180 max. will putting 75 watts rms into the front one damage them? any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

75w divided between 2 drivers is 37.5w each, so you're fine there. Just watch out for the distortion - that's what will cook them. I'd do 1 fr & 1 rr per channel instead of both fr/ both rr per channel tho, keep your channel seperation.
