Default Wiring advice please

Sony Xav 7000
Rockford DSR
Soundigital 800.4
Soundigital 250.2
6.5 Ground zero red baskets with DDB3 mounted in the grills in batwing.
8” PRV with DDB3 in lids.
I feel like I’m cheating on my home work asking for help but I’ve been reading people’s set ups and haven’t found the right answer.
I’d like to hook up both the 6.5 and 8 to the 800.4 and run front and rear tweets off the 250.2 how do I wire this properly? Any tips or advice is appreciated.

U won't get an accurate answer without providing the amp ohm model and the ohms of the speakers. Very important details.

Essentially ur screwed w the 800.4 4 ohm with 4 ohm 6.5s. Gonna only get 100-110 watts each. With the 2 ohm amp version or 8 ohm 6.5s u would get 200 watts to each speaker

The 2 ohm version would be better suited for sure. I would also try to send more power to those red's!

Got it,
Bridge the speakers on 2 channels at 2 ohm and get 400 watts to each pair vs 110 with the 4ohm amp.
