It depends how powerful the sub is? you could use 1 channel for the sub or you could bridge it across 2 channels, depending on teh RMS value. then that only leaves you 2 or 3 channels (depending on how uve wired up te sub) for the front speakers and 6x9's. you will need one channel per speaker. so u will only have enough 2 wire up the front speakers. hope this helps

My local I.C.E shop said they CAN actually run this set-up, with the 4 channel amp powering the fronts, 6x9's and my sub, anyone know how they do this?

yeah run the 6x9s and sub in series to get a impedance of 2 ohm and not 4ohm

i would chuck ur 6x9s if u got a sub as they bcome pointless
