Help me read this, is this enough amp?
760W max power (380W x2 @2O )
150W x2 into 4O , 20-20kHz, at 0.04% THD
190W x2 into 2O , 20-20kHz, at 0.01% THD
380W x1 into 4O , 20-20kHz, at 0.01% THD
Variable 50-300Hz Hi/Lo-pass filter
High-Current MOSFET Output Stage
MOSFET Power Supply
Line-level and Speaker Level Inputs
Gold Plated Recess Connectors
Frequency Response -- 5-50,000Hz (+0/-3dB)
Harmonic Distortion -- 0.005% or less at 1kHz, 4 ohms
Speaker Impedance -- 2 - 8 ohms stereo, 4 - 8 ohms bridged
Input level adjustment range -- 0.2 - 6.0 Volts (line level), 0.4 - 12.0 Volts (speaker level)
Power Supply Voltage -- 10.5 - 16 Volts
Current Drain -- At rated output: 40 Amps at 4 ohms, remote input 2 mA

This is what I need to power.

1. What kind of amp is it?
2. You have 5 speakers including a sub to power off of a 2ch. amp. It can be done(I think) but the ohms might be too low for your speakers.

Question. So if it's a 2 channel amp, that means I can only run 1 set of speakers and 1 sub, generally.
If this is correct, then:
1. That means I have to run the other set of speakers power by the HU only?
2. If I could only have one set, should the amp power the front set or the rear set?

Ok, basically each channel on the amp is made for 1 speaker. So a 2ch. amp could push 1 pair of speakers or 2 subs or 1 sub bridged. When you bridge it you are basically hooking up 1 speaker to both channels and the sub is getting the full power of the amp. So before you do this you have to make sure that your Subs RMS is at least equal to the RMS the amp is putting out. In this case 380Watts.
If I were you this is what I would do(and have done in my car right now). I would power all of your speakers off of the HU, and have the sub bridged on the amp(as long as the sub can handle it) if the sub can't handle it I recommend you pick another matching sub and hook them up in stereo on the amp.
The main advantage of this setup is that you can have a switch hooked up to control whether or not you have the sub(s) running or not. Meaning when your parked and don't have the car running you can turn the amp off and still listen to the radio without worrying about killing your battery. With the amp on you've got about 10min. of listening time before your battery is dead.
