A two channel amp, in simple terms, means that it amplifies two different inputs channels (left and right usually, or could be front/rear), and outputs them into two different channels. Other types of amps you may run across is a one channel amp, which again amplifies one signal or channel.

How do you know if your amp is putting out one channel or two channels?
It will say mono if its only 1 channel which is a sub amp only.
If you have two 900 watt RMS subs what size amp do you need to properly push them?
A 2 channel 900w per channel amp or less will run it, or a 1800w one channel amp etc.. Keep in mind the ohms need to match up too
Can you hook both a subwoofer and speakers to 1 amp If so do I need to buy a amp that's even more powerful Then what the sub requires?
You can connect a sub and speakers to one amp, depending on how many channels your amp has. A 4 channel amp will be able to run one (or two) subs using two channels (one bridged* sub or two subs) and two speakers running one channel each. A 2 channel amp will run 2 speakers or one bridged sub. A 6 channel amp will run one bridged sub (or two subs), 2 front speakers and 2 rear speakers. In my opinion, you will get the most performance, depending on which amps you use, by using a monoblock amp for your sub and an amp with enough channels to run all of your speakers. # Bridged = putting together the power of two channels to run one sub or speaker. Note: not all amps are bridgeable.
Can you overload a channel on a amp?
Yes you can burn a channel on an amp. Which is do to a overload. Like a 2 ohm load on an amp that is not 2 ohm stable. Will burn out a channel or both channels.
Is a 250 watt mono channel amp good enough for 2 100 watt speakers?
Monoblock amp? No. Only 1 channel which is good for one speaker, or one sub. What you need is either a 2 channel amp or a bridgeable 4 channel amp, which would be overkill anyway. If the amp you have is 2 channel, it would be ideal.

How do you bridge three subs to a two channel amp?
3 passive sub at 8 ohm imp in parralel will be 2.6+ impedence.Most of the professional sum amp can take up to 2 ohms load per channel(check the spec of the Amp)eg: you should be able to connect max 4 subs in each channel(match the watts pwr to amp)
What happens when you bridge an amp?
If you bridge a 2 channel 4 channel ect. you are taking the power from both channels as if it was a single channel amp.
How do you bridge two subs to a two channel amp?
Left positive to positive on speaker Right negative to negative on speaker
How would you hook up 2 8 ohm woofers with a 4 ohm dual voice coil woofer?
You could with a 4 channel amp. Bridge it to two channels and hook up the two 8 ohm woofers in parallel on the one bridged channel. Then hook the two coils on the dual coil woofer in series with the other bridged channel on the amp.
Is better to have a mono amp or 2 channel amp to 2 sub-woofers?
You won't notice any stereo separation with two subwoofers because our ears perceive bass as omnidirectional. Two subs can make more volume than one of the same size. If you are using two subs, you should either use two separate mono amps, or a two channel setup. As long as the amps have a high pass filter they will work equally well, although the wiring will be simpler for the two Chanel setup.
Bridge two subs to a four channel amp?
If you amp is bridgeable you run + sub wire to ch 1 + then the -sub wire to the - of ch 2 of the amp. The same with the other sub + ch3 - ch4 that's how to bridge your amp.
