The Soundstream PN4.1000D does rated power. You would be looking at 500 watts per speaker. I don't think even the Moto's can withstand that kind of power for very long. Haze and I discussed it at one point. But decided against it. You could probably get away with 250-300w per our bud HDAUDIOMAN but 500w per speaker is a stretch.

0lowrider1, what is it you are trying to accomplish that has you looking at bridging the channels? Maybe, there is another solutions.
I personally have not used the soundstream products, but looking at the specifications for both the amp and speakers you listed, you should be getting plenty of power to the speakers. As it is I would think running a single channel to either of those speakers you would not have the gain up very much without distortion or clipping starting to take place.

as i am sure you know the gain should be set to match the input signal, not set based on the speakers.
