Need to know more info to help. posting up the model numbers would be best as the infomation you have provided is not enough for me to help.

whats the Ohms of the speakers and sub?
are those power ratings in rms?
@ what ohms is the amp outputting that power

If you're after advice on how to wire them, I'd suggest running the front speakers off the first two channels of the amp, then bridge the last two channels for the sub (assuming it allows bridging) Sub should run fine off that.

cant really give advice as to not knowing the specs.
we can give u alot of ways to do it but it might not be the idea correct way of doing it and something could happen.
from what info is given there. what Drifter995 said is prob the way to go

what area are you from maybe someone can help you.
if your from south east area i can help or can recommend someone who can.

do you even have the cables, wires and stuff to even fit it?
speaker cables
Sub cable
amp wiring kit
RCA
distribution block

if you want to do it yourself then pm me and i'll draw up a diagram for you or if need help setting it up let me know.

He could also run 2 speakers per front channel(parralel both left speakers to L channnel ect) depending on the ohms of the speakers and the amps rating. this would alow him to power everything with the amp like he wanted but i need to know specs before i can say its safe to do this.
