I have a Kenwood KAC-646 4-channel (bridgeable) amp.
I have bridged the the amp, so I now have a high power 2-channel.
My Problem: I have a Sony Xplod 10" 4 ohm SUBWOOFER. What is the most efficient way to power this Sub???
Is it possible to take the bridging further by externally bridging the 2-chanels that I now have? And if I can't how do I hook up the Sub so the Fading will work all around?

is it a single or dual voice coil sub (2 terminals or 4?) if its a dual you're all set 2 terminals of the sub to one channel of the amp 2 term. to the other. if its only a single you maybe in the market for a new amp. before you go shopping though put a call into kenwood and see what your amp specifically can handle

Nice amp, all you have to do is use your amp in a 3 ch configuration. Bridge one part of the amplifier to the sub-woofer in mono, and connect the un-bridged (stereo) portion to your front speakers. As for the non-fading of the subwoofer, since you'll be using a 3 Ch configuration, you can use the front outputs from your deck's RCA's for the stereo, and if your deck has a dedicated Sub-Woofer control, you can connect it to the amp's bridged portion, if not then the front alone will suffice to provide you with all you need.
