Ok basically I want to go from 2 US Acoustics USX 2100s to one 4 channel amp for a couple of reasons. I have a 10" JL W3v2 w/ dual 2 ohm coils wired for 4 ohms, and a pair of CDT CL-61As. I'm currently looking at either the URL=https://www.crutchfield.com/p_500MRPF600/Alpine-MRP-F600.html?tp=115]Alpine MRP-F600[/URL] or the JL Audio G4500. My plan is to run channels 1&2 for the components and bridge channels 3&4 for the sub.

So my question is, will my intended wiring work if I get the JL amp? The Alpine advertises itself as a 4/3/2 channel amp so I'm just wondering if the JL is capable of the same? Is it safe to say that any 4 channel amp can be safely used for 3 channels or is it definitely something to be wary of?

Thanks in advance for any help

The amp was intended to be used exactly as you are planning to use it. Any bridgeable 4 channel amp is a 4/3/2 channel amp.
