Are you saying to bridge each channel as in the positive of channel one to the negative of channel two?? Let me see if I have this correct. For speakers on left side (ch. 1 and 2) i'll wire up like this....

1. Positive on channel one to positive on first speaker.
2. Negative on first speaker to positive on second speaker.
3. Negative on second speaker to negative on channel two.

Is that correct?? And if so, repeat process for speakers 3 and 4, correct??

Obviously you'll only use 2 of the 4 speaker outputs for front and same with rear. just don't know which one's off the top of my head.
