Perhaps, if you biamp them. Depends entirely on your normal listening level. Is that amp confortable with a 4 ohm or less load?

Definitely use four of the channels. An electronic crossover between the two preamp channels and the four power amp channels set at 150Hz would give you more power to work with.
It should sound like it isn't there!
