I have a four channel Alpine MRV-F340 amp, that puts out about 55 wrms to four channels. It can be bridged, so that it puts out 90wrms to two channels. My question is, should I bridge the front two channels to get more power to the fronts, and run the rears off the deck since they are just fill anyway, or should I hook up all four channels? What would you guys do?
