Best Answer

mono or two channel are the best for subs but it depends on if your sub is dual voice coil or single voice coil, what ohm load the amp can handle, and if it is single voice coil and are using one sub you need to make sure you can bridge a 2-channel amp if that's the kind you chose... Next question you ask it may help to add a bit more detail. If I knew the sub brand and model, ohms, and if it's dual or single voice coil i could help answer that much better.

How many RMS 5.1 home theatre speakers do you need for 180 sq feet room?

Should be between 200 -250 RMS Are you asking for the recommended POWER in watts RMS, or do you want to know how many speakers you will need? For a 5.1 speaker system, a system with 100-120 watts per channel RMS would suffice. This would be a total of 500 watts of power, plus the power amp that is built into the subwoofer. This would use 5 speakers, and one subwoofer.

How do you mount subwoofer?

To often mount a subwoofer you will need your desired subwoofer box of choice. Once you have decided what type of box you want, then you will need to take your subwoofer and insert it into the subwoofer hole. Then you screw it down. Once this is done you take your wires and run it into the subwoofer. An amplifier is not necessarily needed, but you'll definitely want one. You will then take your amplifier and connect it to your cars battery, and then also ground it to your car.
