i have a 2400 w nitro amp BWMx-486 2ch/bridgable
its a 2 channel and its bridgeable with a built in x-over
i have 4 visionik 350 w 4 ohm speakers 6x8
i have installed all 4 speakers and ran monster #10 wire back to the back. i have taken out all the seats / carpet / back of my truck..i have already built my MDF board for the back.
i also have a 2.5 farad capictor
and i have 2 12" kicker compcvt's already in pre-made sub boxes(seperate) installed.
now my question/questions...
now since its a 2 chan 2400 w amp.. i can only run that to my sub's correct?
and i want to go buy my 2nd amp tom for my 4 speakers. what size watt amp should I get? becuz i know 2400 w for my 2 subs is way to much right??
and also. with my bridgeable 2400 w amp.. how do i connect that with my capitor and 2nd amp?? its got a build in x-over.. im just a lil confused on the wiring. u guys have all helped me just by reading ur forum posts the last few days.. i want to try finishing this all this weekend as i work during the week. i been busting my *** every day this week after work lol... i'd appreciate any help / input.... ty

Sell the capacitor.
Never look at max power ratings, only RMS ratings matter. That amp will actually not push those subs to their full potential because it can only do 600W RMS (and only if the subs are wired correctly).
You'll want another amp for your door speakers (which are rated at 60W RMS), get a four channel amp capable of 50-75 watts a channel (get one that does not say max power anywhere on the box) for your door speakers.
You need bigger power wire, 10 gauge won't cut it for that kind of current. Go to at least 4 gauge.
