do u reckon i could be able to bridge the connection on the amp for my sub and put front components on instead of buying a new amp? i did it with some old 6x9s and they worked fine so it shouldnt be a problem should it?

youll need a new amp mate. thats only a 2 channel, therefore bridge the channels to run your sub, but you wont be able to add speakers to it aswell
if it was 4 channel then you would have used channels 1 & 2 (bridged) for the sub
and 3 and 4(not bridged) for each speaker

the fact that youd need 6 wires going to it (2 for the sub, 4 for the speaker), and only 4 places to put them means its pretty impossible lol
use the mutant amp for sub, and new amp for comps
and i wouldnt buy vibe, the hertz ones i showed you are arguably the best components on the market for less that £100

i gto a nice kicker L7 15" in my car with a vibe monoblock 4 amp. sub ment to be 1000w RMS! but its all wired up at 1ohm so amp ment to be putting out 1400w RMS! who knows though.... its fairly loud thought
and p.s.
6x9 are great if you using them on there own... but if your runninga sub ditch them.. they share the same air space and also they crossover on freq ranges sounding gash

where theres the +-+- the speakers go on a +- each, and the sub goes on the + of the left set and the - of the right set if that makes any sense?
