Bridge mono mode
WHAT IT IS
Bridged mono combines the power of both amp channels channel into one speaker, resulting in twice the
voltage swing, four times the peak power, and approximately three times the sustained power of a single
channel. This mode uses channel A's input, gain control, input filter, and clip limiter, Channel B's should
not be used.
WHEN TO USE IT (OR NOT)
Use bridged mono to deliver the power of both channels to a single 8-or 4- Ohm load. Set amp switch
"Down", Set input switch "Up"
BRIDGED-MONO PRECAUTIONS:
This mode outs a high demand on the amplifier and
speaker. Excessive clipping may cause protective muting or speaker damage. Be sure the speaker
has a sufficient power rating.

Precaution
If the load is 4 Ohms or less and prolonged overloads occur, the amplifier will probably mute for several
seconds during peaks, and the circuit Breaker may trip. Do not use 2 Ohm loads.
