V-66 SPEAKER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS BRIDGE MODE
IMPORTANT:
The V-66 amplifiers are capable of driving 8 ohm speaker loads in in bridge mono mode. Never connect more than one
8ohm speaker to a single channel in bridge mono mode. Never combine the – negative channels of the amplifier together. Improper
speaker installation can damage the amplifiers and void the warranty. If you are unsure how to connect speakers to the V-66 always
contact a qualified Factor Electronics technician before connecting speakers to the amplifiers.
INSTALLATION:
Connecting 8 ohm speakers to the V-66 in BRIDGE MODE
Setting the amplifier mode switch to BRIDGE mode will double the amplifier power output to 100 watts. Effectively combining the LEFT
and RIGHT amplifiers into one larger mono amplifier. The LEFT and RIGHT input signals will be summed to mono. The minimum speaker
impedance in bridge mode is 8ohms. Use good quality 12-14awg stranded copper speaker wire. Never run speaker wires parallel to AC
wires. If you must cross AC wires always cross at a 90 degree angle. The speaker output terminal block connectors are removable.
Remove the terminal block connector and make sure that all connections are open by turning each set screw counter clockwise.
This insures that the speaker wire opening is completely open. Trim approx 1/4” of insulation from the speaker wire and twist the copper
ends. Insert the speaker wires into the connector and tighten the set screws. Repeat for the remaining zones.
MONO Repeat for zones 1-6
NOTE: It is possible to set some amplifier
channels to BRIDGE and some to STEREO.
Follow the correct wiring techniques and
correct speaker impedance for each zone.
