5ch amp connection - would this work?

I am planning to get a 5ch amp for non hifi

how to connect it actually?

i replaced the front speaker to 2 pairs JBL 4" and 6.5" 2 way and 3 ways

wants to replace the 6x9 at the back and add a sub.

for the front, should i just paralle connect them? with 2 channels

2 channels for the 6x9 and the last channel for the sub....

what is the choice you recommend? i checked infinity, jbl..and alphine(kinda expensive)...

I'm currently installing a JL 500/5, 1 sub, 2 fronts and 2 rears. all on thier own channel.

It looks like you're adding everything back with the speaker replacement. I just went with 6.5" focal 2 ways up front and mounted the tweet via plexi in the stock 3" hole. May be a little cheaper to do but more time consuming.

The Alpine PDX amps are a good choice -- they're bulletproof.
