So a little bit of back ground on me. Never installed a stereo in my life. Love the tunes just never tackled it. I figure if I can install an elevator I can do this. Hopefully. So here is my build list
4 JL mx650 60 watt
2 JL m3 770 tower speakers 70 watt
1 JL m3 10ib 175 watt
M800/8 v2
Would you use 4 channels for the 650s? Or two channels. I’m guessing I’ll have to bridge a channel for the sub. Just looking to see what the best route is. One rca for the sub? Or use a splitter. Thanks for any advice. Going into a 2020 AR240” with a fusion hu. Harness already purchased.
 
I would do all 6 speakers on there own channel and bridge the last 2 for the sub. 100w at 2ohm, that would be 50w per speaker if you ran all 4 650's on 2 channels.

That’s kind of what I was thinking. Just getting a list together for KnuKonceptz.
