Bridge mono Mode:

 

In bridged mono mode, the power of both Satellite output channels (Left & Right) 

is merged to deliver double the power to one single 8 Ohm load. The mode 
selection switch should be positioned in the Bridge position (Left position of the 
switch). 
 
The output of the signal source should only be connected with the Left channel 

XLR input connector of the amplifier. 

 

For more information about how the loudspeakers should be connected in bridge 
mode, refer to the “Output Connections” section of this user manual.

Parallel Mode: 

In parallel mode (Right position of the switch), the amplifier is configured in a way 
that only the signal applied to the XLR input connector of the Left channel will be 

used, and will be amplified by both satellite and subwoofer output channels. 
 
The output level of both channels can be individually controlled by means of the 
rotary controls on front of the amplifier.
