another amp question
If I buy a 4 channel amp, and use 2 channels bridged for my sub and then the other 2 channels to run my door speakers, how much power is going to the subwoofer rms and max on the 2 channels that are bridged. (single subwoofer)
I know you need to know what amp I'm using so for this one, how much is going to the sub on the 2 bridged channels? (im dumb and dont know how to read this shiz)

150 rated watts rms, BUT! thats sony and they tend to overrate their amps a little, if it were me i would look for a little better amp. ( maybe xtant, alpine, jl, JBL (good and cost effective).)

thanks for the quick answer. 
since I'm trying not to break my bank, I may just end up sticking with a 2 channel amp and sub and maybe just upgrading the door speakers to run off of the factory head unit.
the other option i had was the audiobahn 4 channel, cuz i've heard good things about audiobahn, but it would cost $100 more than i wanted to spend.

thats only $60 more than the sony that you posted, AND audiobahn has been known for their lack of quality/overrating amps, but here are a few links to the amps that i would do if i were in the same situation (just my $.02 take it or leave it)
