Thanks for that, Navin ..

At the moment, the sub is not connected. Neither my HU nor my amp has the extra channel for the sub. So I have a 14 ga cable laid from HU to the amp, ready for use.

Now looking out for an amp that can support the 4 channels + Sub. I have posted a query in the Ask the Guru's thread for this.

I did see that but I did not have an answer. I am used a monoblock and 2 4 channel amps in my Camry.
