Operation Manual

3.6.3 Bridge-Mono 16/8 Mode

CAUTION: Never change the position of 
the Mode Switch while the amplifier 
power is on. See Section 5.2.2 for more 
information.

Typical input and output wiring, along with level 
control and Mode Switch settings are shown in 
Figure 3.8. Make sure the Mode switch is set to 
the “Bridge 16/8” position. 

INPUTS: Connect input wiring only to the lower-
(odd-) numbered channel pair.

OUTPUTS: Connect the speaker across the posi-
tive terminals of each channel pair. Do not use 
the negative terminals of the channel pair when 
the pair is being operated in Bridge-Mono mode. 

NOTE: 

When operating the channel pair in 

Bridge-Mono mode, turn down (full CCW) the 
level control for the higher (even)-numbered 
channel of the channel pair. The lower (odd)-
numbered level control works both channels.

3.6.4 Bridge-Mono 100V Mode

CAUTION: Never change the position of 
the Mode Switch while the amplifier 
power is on. See Section 5.2.2 for more 
information.

Typical input and output wiring, along with level 
control and Mode Switch settings are shown in 
Figure 3.9. Make sure the Mode switch is set to 
the “Bridge 100V” position. 

INPUTS: Connect input wiring only to the lower-
(odd-) numbered channel pair.

OUTPUTS: Connect the speaker across the posi-
tive terminals of each channel pair. Do not use 
the negative terminals of the channel pair when 
the pair is being operated in Bridge-Mono mode. 

NOTE: 

When operating the channel pair in 

Bridge-Mono mode, turn down (full CCW) the 
level control for the higher (even)-numbered 
channel of the channel pair. The lower (odd)-
numbered level control works both channels.
