Bridge Setup
Hookup Diagrams continued...
Now we’re looking at a bridge setup. Instead of the two ins, two outs of the stereo setup, this is a single in, single out.
A cable from the mixer’s left main output jack is connected to the ch. 1 input jack of the MX Series amplifier.
The ch. 1 (bridge) speaker output of the MX amp is then connected to the input of a single passive loudspeaker [Mackie
DRM212-P in this example]. Make sure that the amp mode is set to “bridge”.

Bridge
In bridge mode, only
this gain control is used.
If you have two amplifiers, each could power a
single speaker in bridged mono, to make a very
powerful stereo system. Use a stereo feed from
your mixing console, the left goes to one amp,
and the right goes to the other.
