Modes: STEREO/PARALLEL/BRIDGE

BRIDGE mode
In this mode, the CHANNEL A input signal will be
output from the BRIDGE output terminals. In this

case, use the front panel (channel) 

A

 volume control

to adjust the volume.

SPEAKER IMPEDANCE

In STEREO and PARALLEL modes, the minimum
load (=speaker) impedance is 4

. In BRIDGE mode it

is 8

.

Make sure that the impedance does not fall below this
specified impedance.

STEREO mode
In this mode, channels A and B operate independently
(as a conventional stereo amp).
The CHANNEL A input signal will be output from
the CHANNEL A output terminals, and the CHAN-
NEL B input signal will be output from the CHAN-
NEL B output terminals.

PARALLEL mode
In this mode, the CHANNEL A input signal will be
output from the output terminals of both channels A
and B. The CHANNEL B input terminals is not used.

The (channel) 

A

 and 

B

 volumes can be adjusted

independently.
