can you hook up the rear speakers regular, 1 on each channel, then bridge your sub between them

What kind of amp, [make and model] is it not bridgeable into a 1ch amp for sub use.

As there is probably only one x-over switch, for it to work properly it would have to be set at LP, [low pass] but running your read speakers on low pass is not going to work, you may be able, [depending on amp] be able to run it in "tri mode" left and right , [2ch mode] to the rear speakers and bridged mono for the sub, [a passive x-over, low pass, would be needed for the sub at least, and maybe high pass for the rear speakers] 94
