Bridging Channels DSP 2-750 MKII

Figure 13: Volume Level Control

Figure 11: Bridging Channels

Volume Level Control

 

Volume can be controlled from the individual recessed volume level 

control screws, located on the front panel and from SonARC (see 

Figure 13). These volume controls balance the desired sound levels 

per channel. Volume can be controlled three different ways with 

SonARC v2 (see Figure 14).
1. Output volume         2. Turn on volume 

3. Maximum volume

Output volume ranges between -70 to 12. The volume level 

controls are set at +12 by default.

Source Connections DSP 2-750 MKII

 

On the left side of the rear panel are the audio inputs for the left 

and right channels. In addition to the left and right inputs there are 

also loop outputs for each channel. The loop outputs allow multiple 

amplifiers to share common audio sources. The loop outputs on 

the amplifiers are not buffered. The number of amplifiers that can 

be connected in series will depend on the output level of your audio 

source. The source connected to the LEFT and RIGHT LINE IN 

Inputs pass through the LEFT and RIGHT LINE Outputs 

(see Figure 12).

Speaker Connections

For the best sound you should use 

premium speaker wire that complies 

with fire rating codes. Be sure to 

check local codes governing wire 

that may be installed within walls or 

ceilings. Sonamp amplifiers are 

stable with any reputable brand of 

speaker wire or cable. The Sonamp 

amplifiers use speaker block 

connectors that can accommodate 

up to 12 gauge wire (see Figure 9).

NOTE: ALWAYS CHECK LOCAL BUILDING CODES BEFORE INSTALLING 

WIRE IN WALLS OR CEILINGS.

Speaker Connections

Bridging channels is accomplished using the SonARC v2 software. 

On the second page in the software under IN/OUT Settings, go to 

the output setup area to bridge mode and make your selections 

with the drop down buttons.
1. Use the left audio input when operating the amplifiers output in  

   bridge mode (see Figure 10).
2. Select ON in the bridge mode (see figure 10).
3. Connect the speaker’s “+” lead to the left side of the connector  

    marked “+” (see Figure 11). 
4. Connect the speaker’s “–” lead to the right side of the connector  

    marked “+” (see Figure 11).
5. Connect the line level audio input to the LEFT channel input on  

   the amplifier.

IMPORTANT: THE MINIMUM SPEAKER IMPEDANCE FOR BRIDGED 

OPERATION IS 8 OHMS. DO NOT OPERATE A ZONE IN THE BRIDGED MODE 

INTO A SPEAKER THAT IS LESS THAN 8 OHMS NOMINAL IMPEDANCE.

IMPORTANT: USE CAUTION WHEN SETTING VOLUME LEVELS EITHER ON 

THE AMPLIFIER OR AN AUDIO SWITCHER AS NOT TO OVERDRIVE AND 

POSSIBLY DAMAGE SPEAKERS. VERIFY ALL SOURCES AS OUTPUT 

VOLTAGE VARIES FROM DEVICE TO DEVICE.
