Bridged-Mono Operation
If wish to operate the MOON 870A Dual-Mono
Power Amplifier as a monoblock amplifier, it can be
converted to bridged mode without any complex
modifications. Only a Simaudio XLR-BRIDGE
Y-cable is required. This custom cable will allow
one input signal to be sent to both channels of
the amplifier’s inputs, as pictured above in Figure
3. One lead from the “Y” adapter must plug into
right channel input and the other lead must plug
into left channel input.
As well, you must use the positive terminal of
each output binding post (exactly as in figure 3)
for the loudspeaker connection. If you are unsure
about how to accomplish a bridged-mono mode
of operation, don’t hesitate to contact your
Authorized MOON dealer.
The MOON 870A produces 800 watts of output
power at 8 ohms for a single channel when
operating in bridged-mono mode.
