First: Ummm.... 2300 watts? For a 6by? BS! I have no idea WHERE that number came from, it's completely made up.
Those are 440 watts peak. 2-80 watts. Anything in that range will be fine.
Second: Why do you think you have to push them to their max? No need, and no benefit beyond 50 watts (real world watts, not Audiobahn watts...) or so.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

So what would be the best way to wire these 6 speakers to a 4 channel amp?

Parallel the fronts for a 2-ohm load, and run the rears as-is. If you only want loud, you're gonna be golden, but for SQ, you're going to start fresh, with new speakers - and NOT 6X9s - and only run one set up front.

I'm sorry, i think i described my system wrong, i have the Pioneer TS-D1720C in front with a total of 120 watts RMS and 520 watts max for the front, and then in the rear i have two pair of Pioneer TS-A6993R with a total of 320 watts RMS and 1840 watts max, for a total of 440 watts RMS, and 2360 watts max for all speakers, so what would your suggestions be for wiring and amp? thanks ------------- Mastermindz
