3 channels
Channel 1 is the 2 dash speakers
Channel 2 is the 2 door speakers
Channel 3 is the 4 speakers on the back shelf.


The stock amp on my Boxster S had 4 channels, powering the 2 dash speakers and the 2 door speakers.

Upgrading to the six channel amp required running a 4 conductor wire from the new headunit to the rear channel of the new amp (4 wires because Left and Right signals), and running 4 conductor speaker wire from the new amp to the two sets of two speakers in the rear - 2 speakers each for left and right.
