Setting up monoblocks


Hi, any help would be great. I am sure this is simple but I can't get my head around this.
I was given 2 denon-poa-6600 monoblock amps. They each have 2 outputs.
Running them into my preamp and 4 speakers. Looking at the front speakers do I use one amp for front left and rear left, and then right front and rear with the other amp?
The mono part is playing with my mind not usually this mentally challenged hahah.
Thanks

I guess i could have described the amps a little better for clarity, especially the a/b button which is important.

I am still a little unsure on the rear speaker setup. Do i keep the left front and left rear on one amp etc, or do I crossover the rears and do front right left rear etc. on one amp.
I figured I would ask and look foolish then not ask and do everything twice. Thanks
Thanks, I am not a huge movie fan so surround is not an issue . Bringing up the ohms is now confusing so I guess I have more reading to do this afternoon. I do know that my speakers are ,

Frequency Response: 43Hz – 20KHz

Suitable Amplifier Power Range: 15-200watts

Impedance: 6 ohms

Sensitivity - Room / Anechoic: 91.5dB/88.5dB

and the amps are .

Rated power: 250 watts into 8 ohms, 20Hz-20kHz, <0.02% THD, 450 watts into 4 ohms, DIN 1 kHz

Dynamic power: 650 watts into 4 ohms, 1100 watts into 1 ohm
Thanks Montejay, I have a bad habit of over complicating things. I figured that was the setup, but it was also nice to hear from someone whom actually used the amps.
I still need to figure out the amp impedance to the speaker etc. theory but I should be able to Google that to find out what is going on there.

Thanks again everyone for your help.
Wow this got interesting. Thanks. While I can understand not normally running each amp into two same side speakers all four speakers are the same. Paradigm studio montitors version2.

I had a small budget to stick to( not like some of you lol ) and picked up an Audio research LS3 preamp and a Cambridge Audio DAC Magic which I needed. This is all for this year. That is why I wanted to use all 4 speakers, I am stuck regardless with the monoblocks till next year.

As for getting the all "all channel stereo sound" I understand your point, that was why I wondered if crossing the amps like front right to rear left etc might have improved the sound; again primarily music and not really concerned for TV or movies.

Just trying to do the best and get the best sound with what I have at the moment.

Regardless I do appreciate the feedback,and comments. It has directed my researching a little more specific than just random Google searching.
