How to use a 4-channel for 2 speakers in stereo?

When doing this, run the same signal to both RCA inputs on each side of the amp. For example, if you want the Front channels to be left, put a left RCA in both Front inputs. Then put a right RCA in both Rear inputs. You now have mono left on the front and mono right on the rear.

Set those gains first with the balance set at even so the speakers are happy . From there you can adjust the HU balance so you are happy with the sound as the balance should only decrease left or right (not overdrive or damage your speakers).
On a side note, I've got my front stage T/A'd but obviously the left speakers are closer to me so they sound much louder. Therefore I run my balance at about +2 to the right. After T/A adjustments are any of you guys still messing with balance?
I find when running your fronts this way, you will probably want your driver side gain set down a touch from the other side (unless you've got some T/A)
