connection issue :(

Hey guys I have a 340W Clarion Amp 2 Channel, I want to hookup my speakers to it, I'm aware of not having the fad control, my front speakers are 280w pioneers only 50w rms an back are walmart shitties with 150w max, both sets are 4ohm rating. I wired the back in series tried that set my crossover to stereo an nothing...I then tried putting them to parralel an again nothing? I'm clearly missing something anyways ideas? I did turn my hpf off on the amp, any suggestions would be great! Thanks

try a buddies amp...then you can at least determine if the issue is with the amp or the rest of your setup.
