Something I was actually thinking, that amp might not be powerful enough to do the speakers and the sub...

I'm tryin to do some reading about this all because I lost most of my audio knowledge a while ago.

The amp specs are as follows:
80 watts RMS x 4 at 4 ohms
» 125 watts RMS x 4 at 2 ohms
» 225 watts RMS x 2 bridged output at 4 ohms

Does that mean I could run 2 speakers @ 4ohms 80 watts PLUS the sub at 225 watts @ 4 ohms

or 2 speakers @ 4ohms 80 watts OR the sub at 225 watts @ 4 ohms

I actually think the latter is correct, in which case, not enough juice...

So, I would need to find something that I could run triway, to power almost 250 watts bridged to the sub PLUS almost 75 watts each to the components, right? Or, of course, a mono amp for the sub and a second amp for the components.

ugh, im seeing this drift from my budget quickly...
