How to hook up 6 speakers to a 4 channel

You said you were going with a 4 channel, I thought?

So you'll have 4 outputs on the amp, which means 2 6.5"s will go out 1 set of the outputs. The tweeters will be wired to their own channel. So all together you would have 2 6.5"s on one channel, another 2 6.5"s on another channel, then the 2 tweeters on their own channels.

That is if I am understanding you correctly.

damn this miscommunications lol.

yes, you are correct about me using a 2 channel.

the two front channels would be going to the supertweets. so thats 2 channels used.

now the rear two channels i was going to bridge. so that was all 4 6.5" speakers would be getting more power.

does that make sense?

If you're using the 1100.4 You can do the same way me and a friend have it setup.

Two 4 ohm speakers for channel 1, two 4 ohm speakers for channel two.

One or two 4 ohm super tweeters channel three, and one or two 4 ohm tweets for channel four.

We don't have it bridged, due to the fact of he wants a stereo setup, and not mono.

wtf, i swear i read crescendo 1100.4

If you don't have an amp that is active, you will need a crossover so you don't play low frequencies into your tweets, and blow them.

hmmm i see. i was just trying to get the most power out of the 4 channel.

but i guess channels 1 and 2 for each super tweets

and channels 3 and 4 each getting a pair of 6.5"

than the 6.5"s would be getting less power than the tweets... would that sound a bit overpowering on the high end?

I was under the impression you were going to use 2 pairs of 6.5's and a pair of tweeters, now if you are going to use 4 pairs then you will want to wire it up exactly as the picture you posted for a 4 ohm load to each side. Personally though you would be better off with two amps,one to power the 6.5s and a smaller 2 ch amp for just the tweeters.
