It's a 4 channels amp i got no problems with the rear output just the front that i don't know how to hook it up. I am running this amp to the rear and front of my car, at the back i got 6x9 and the front 4'" speaker. The brand of the amp is SENCOR i try many time to find info on the net with no luck at all and the model is SCA-450 or something like that.

With what you've got there you need to forget about the bridge. Connect your left front speaker to the L side of the amp and the R to the right side. Of course positive to positive and negative to negative.
The bridge is just there as an easier method of bridging if you want to run a sub off those channels.

I wish it was that simple, what happened is that like -L..+GND-..R+ they are in the same block. let me show u (-L..+) & (-R..+) Now if i connect the -L and the + together then it's within the same terminal and the same appled to -R..+ Do you know what i mean?

Ok.... that's a little different. So i take it you don't have a manual on this or anything. There is always trail and error. But if your going to do this only connect 1 speaker to see what does what. Maybe someone else can shed a little more light on the subject for you.

Nedgeworth, how did ya make out with the cd player? Mrdragon please put a list on the site of all the connections to this amplifier, the ones that you are listing appear to be high level inputs and not speaker outputs, are the rca inputs on the same end as this terminal? or are the power / ground/ remote on on this end?
