Advice on a 6 speaker set up

[GLITRES]

Hey guys, don't know is anyone has asked this before but i counldnt find it.

I need some help,
this is what i have in my VY atm.
Ive got a pioneer head unit.
JL audio VR 6" splits in the front doors
JL audio TR 6x9" in the back
JL audio A1400 to run speakers above
JL audio 300/2 (i think) to run my subs
2 Kicker 12" subs

so head unit runs nothing, the amps do it all.

The problem i have is i wanna put 6" spits or just 6" speakers in the back door (as i love it loud) but how would i run these? can i plug them in the A1400 amp where the 6" splits are currently as well?
Or do i need another amp? Cause i don't wanna run anything off the head unit.

All advice welcome, thanks guys

Are you sure that the amp is a JL Audio A1400? Its just the only JL amp i can find info on with that model number is a 1000w monoblock.

Basically, if you have the specs on the amp and it can run at 2ohm (should say something like 80w x 4 at 4 ohm, 110w x 4 at 2 ohm) then you can hook the front splits and rear door speakers off the front output channels.

yeah i think its that model, my G/F has my car at the moment.
so your saying i can run 6 speakers from a 4 channel amp? is that right?

whats so bad about wanting to just run it off the head unit

nothing really, but you get heaps more quality sound from an amp.
just rather that

You can run up to eight 4 ohm speakers off a 4 ch. amp........provided its 2 ohm stable and your not "bridging" the outputs. Most amps arent 2 ohm stable when bridged.
