Need help wiring a amp

bridge or mono are the same. Depending on the impedance of the speakers determines how you wire them up. What impedance is your amp in stereo and mono? Plus what are the impedances of your 6x9s?
if you bridge them you will only have one single channel of music coming from rear of car.

Your 6x9's will need a full range of sound, so you need no filtering, set the crossover to off. plug the phone/rca leads from the back of the head unit into the signal in, then your speaker to the left and right output channel (left to left speaker, right to right speaker). After connecting the power, ground and remote cables that should be it.

The remote lead switches the amp on when you switch the head unit on, so the amp is not permanently powered, you connect the remote cable to the remote out on the back of the head unit, might be called "amp rem" or "rem" something like that, What head unit is it? if you haven't got a remote out then you can use the ignition power but its not ideal. yes it is the blue one

HPF = High Pass Filter (Treble, eliminates the low bassy frequencies from going to the speakers)
LPF = Low Pass filter (Bass for woofers, cuts the high frequencies out)
Off = Full range, this is what you want for you 6x9's
As said earlier. 2 channel amp so your should have 4 terminals to match four terminals on the speakers.
The fuse (cartridge on red cable) goes as close to the car battery as possible.
The earth (black cable) from the amp to the chassis of the car should be as short as possible.(Best to remove the paint where you make the connection)
The wire from remote on the amp goes to remote on the rear of HU. Thus turning on the amp only when the HU is on.
Set the gains on the amp to around halfway to start with and go from there.
Last thing I can think of is to ensure the rear output of the HU (Rear Pre-out) is used. This way you should be able to use the balance and fade on thr HU as normal.
