Default Will my setup work?

I plan on getting an Alpine 7893 HU, Infinity/JL Audio components for front, Sony coax for rear, JL 10W0(8ohm) sub for hatch area,60x4 PPI amp, farnheit screen and dvd player. I plan to run the rear coax off the HU and the fronts off of channels 3&4, and bridge the 1&2 channels for the sub. Since the sub is 8 ohm, will bridging two 60 watt channels be enough power(how much would actually be going to it)? It doesnt need much power, I think its only rated at 125 watts. Will this setup work or should I buy a new amp for sub(size?), get Alpine 7995(deadhead) and run the fronts and rears off the PPI? I have no clue when it comes to power and ohms.

hum.. your PPI is 60x4 into 4 ohms load and most likely 120x2 bridged into 4 ohms. now if you use 1&2 for the fronts and bridge 3&4 for the sub, you get 120 for the sub at 4 ohms. but your sub is at 8 ohm, so theorictally, you are using 60 w for your sub.. Why don't you get the 4 ohm version of your sub so you can get 120w out of your 3&4 channel.

I have the sub already and I did not want to buy another one. Anyone know of someone that wants one?
