There should be a switch on the amp that says stereo and mono on it. You will want it to be just for the rears, I know most amps have it where you can set all of them, but you don't want that for your components.

The 140x2 is probably each channel bridged so:
70x1 front, 70x1 rear | 35x2 front, 35x2 rear.

So, 35 rms per channel all around.

I would just hook it up as my first pic. But if your head unit has any option for the output you are using, check into that. Otherwise, just hook it up as my first pic.

ok so i figured out why the amp cut out a few times.. the gain for the rear channels were at its max!!! i totally forgot that i had a diff gain setting for the rear channels.. so now i play it, its not AS loud but it still hits hard and the amp doesnt cut out at all.

well, my amp started cutting out again and it got very annoying, so i soldered my connections(they kept on coming loose) and re-wired them like so:

i tried wiring it like this:

but it automatically started cutting out.. o_O

so now its wired like the first pic and it sounds good. :)

hopefully it stays this way.

p.s. in this configuration, what is the output? the sub is dual 4 ohm. thanks.

2 ohms in one channel on the first pic and 4 ohms in each channel it's hooked into for the second.

do you know why it would be cutting out automatically when i hooked it up like the 2nd pic?

so i was driving around today with the 1st config, and it started cutting out when i raised the volume again.. why, i do not know. so, i decided to switch it up and hook up the positive to ch 3 + and the negative to the ch 4 -. im gonna ride around with this, see if it does the trick. this is starting to bug me.. any suggestions, short of getting a dedicated amp for the sub?
