Hey,
i got a 2 channels amplifier Pyle PLAD212 that is unused. I want to use it to amplify my speakers. Is it possible to amplify the 4 speakers on it? Like 2 speaker on right 2 on left. Did they will sound good? Or its better to only amplify the rear speaker? Did the headunit will push more power only on front speaker if there is no rear?

That amp is better used as a tire chock.

You would probably get more satisfaction from that amp if you never put it in your vehicle, the amp really sucks. I put a PYLE in my car and took it out the very same day, all it will do is leave you scratching your head wondering why you wasted your time.

i kind of agree about not using it, but to answer your question you need to look at the specs to see if each channel is rated at 2 ohms. if not you can still do it but you will need to wire the speakers a certain way to keep from damaging your amp. i would suggest you only hook it up to your front 2 speakers because i wouldn't even take a chance with that amp by running 4 speakers on it.

And to answer your other question, No your radio will not put out more power on only one set of speakers.
