   if you have a four channel amp that means you can have four speakers wired to it, one channel = one speaker.
   
   UNLESS you have the 6x9's bridged over the four channels meaning you have two channels bridged for one speaker.
   
   To solve this take the bridge away and run the 6x9s off the rear channel and that leaves you the other two front channels for the front speakers.
   
   BUT by taking away the bridge the 6x9's wont be fed as much power.

   your sub will also be using 2 channels. your 6x9 are prob usin 1 channel each and ur sub will be usin 2 channels, looks like a new amp or drop the sub.
