Hey,
i want to buy a 4 channels amp but i have a question. In the front i got 2x 4x6 Infinity Reference that run at 2 Ohm and in the back i got 6x9 that run at 4 ohm. Is it possible with a 4 Channels amp to put the front in 2 ohms and the back in 4 ohm??

yes, its very easy just bridge the 2 ohm ones, this will give you a 2 ohm load, it should even say on the terminals.

Do not bridge your 4X6 dash speakers. Stereo means 2 separate channels of information. If you bridge the amp this will give you a mono signal. Zero Stereo separation. Just connect one speaker to each channel of the amp.

Very bad advice. You need to learn what you're doing before you post here my friend. :)

i guess this is why amps have protection circuits.
