Default Connection Recommendation?

Ok, I'll start off by saying: NO 4 channel amp this season. That will be a winter project .. Now, my question. I replaced a semi defective Arc amp about a month ago with a PBR300x2. It was only powering my front Focal components. Then, once again I got the lid bug and followed thru. I have freshly painted HT 6x9 lids, hydrophobic cloth and Kicker 11KS69 speakers. So, my wiring options are:
A.) Parallel using the the lids as fill in sound/bass
B.) JVC HU power to the fronts/PBR300x2 to the rear
C.) JVC HU power to the rear/PBR300x2 to the fronts

Prior to my Focal's, I was using some less efficient Memphis Audio 6.5" components. My Arc was sent in for some warranty repairs and I wired the HU to power the speakers, and I was pleasantly surprised to their sound. In all likelihood, this will be a remainder of the season connection, but if I'm content?? Thoughts, experience ? Thx
