then you have much to learn, lol
its called bridging, and generally gives you double (often times more) the wattage output vs just 1 channel. great when you need the power for a subwoofer.
240w each speaker or 240w combined?

Ohh I've heard of bridging but had no clue what it was. Is it a complicated process?then you have much to learn, lol

not even remotelyOhh I've heard of bridging but had no clue what it was. Is it a complicated process?
If you get a multichannel amplifier, it tells you how to do it. basically you put the pos on one channel, put the neg on the other channel (of the 2 that you're bridging). It'd be easier for you to look at the outputs of any multi channel amp

power them at the RMS.
so your going to want to find an amp that puts out 80 wattsx2 @4ohms.
i looked them up and they are 80 watts RMS apiece.
Im not lying to you i install stereos and speakers all the time.

I'll agree with you for most speakers, but some particular brands and models are power hungry...power them at the RMS.

An amps peak power output doesn't have to exactly match the speakers peak power handling. I don't know why so many people assume this is the case. You can put a 25 x 2 watt amp to a set of speakers that can handle 100 watts, for example. They just won't reach as high of a peak volume that a 50 x 2 watt amp to the same speakers would give, that's all.
