just got my hands on a boston gt40 amp and having a lil drama installing

i want to bridge all 4 channels into 2 until i get my active crossover

i run my front stage rca into the amp chan 1/2 do i need to use splitters and plug into channe 3/4 also? the amp has a switch that passes rca to rear channel? i dont want to use splitters cos the rca input on these amps are really sh*t so tight
so if i just use 1 pair of rca and pass to rear channels then i bridge chan 1/2 and 3/4

will i still get left and right channel?

also do i have to switch it to mono? or leave it in stereo?

thanks

If you are running the amp for your Fronts then it needs to be Switched to Stereo, Next thing.. It is a better Idea to use Splitters, This won't affect your Signal, you just have to remember which RCA's are left and Right and copy the Connections to your 3 and 4 Input or you will end up with a confused signal and it will sound bad..

I take it this is running front speakers???

insert rca's into channel 1&2, flick the switch to pass this through to channel 3 and 4.
You want this all stereo.
