If 500W are specified for a 4 ohm load, you will only obtain 250W for
each channel over a 8 ohm speaker. In bridged mode, it is not true that
basically one channel drives the upper part of the sine and the other
the lower: they operate in push-pull, supplying each side of the speaker
with
Thanks folks for your quick replies.
I've dug out the manual and even though the specifications say it can do 4
ohms in bridged mode, there is another statement that says it doesn't
recommend it.
Here is what it says about bridged mode:
The A channel handles the positive voltage and the B
