Amp Wiring

Hello
I am trying to install a 4 channel amplifier KAC_M3004 by Kenwood. I am unclear how to hook up the outputs.

Here is the amp output...

RMS POWER Output 4Ω: 50W x 4
RMS POWER Output 2Ω: 75W x 4
RMS POWER Output Bridged: 150W x 2

I want to only connect my 2 J&M Rokkers Fairing speakers at this time which are 2 ohm.

Can someone help me to determine how to connect this amp to 2 channel 2 ohm speakers.

I am very ignorant about stereos so please be patient with me. If there is any other information you require please let me know.

Thank you for your help!!!

Bryan

I have this AMP that was apparently on my bike when I bought it used and not connected. anyone know how to correctly wire it up. I have not seen one before with the input as "+" only. Also not 100% sure what the "com" port is for...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Also if anyone knows how to get in touch with the guys at Street Star Designs that would be helpful too.

Thanks!

You don't want to wire that amp up bro... Disconnect that thing and start over with one of the recommended amps on the forum.

That was my original plan, but I removed the fairing and there it was. Just figured I might try it out...

What's up with this amp? just poor quality??

Thanks for the response!
