s Modes: STEREO/PARALLEL/BRIDGE STEREO mode In this mode, channels A and B operate independently (as a conventional stereo amp). The CHANNEL A input signal will be output from the CHANNEL A output jacks, and the CHANNEL B input signal will be output from the CHANNEL B output jacks. PARALLEL mode In this mode, the CHANNEL A input signal will be output from the output jacks of both channels A and B. The CHANNEL B input jack is not used. The (channel) A and # volumes can be adjusted independently. BRIDGE mode In this mode, the CHANNEL A input signal will be output from the BRIDGE output jacks. In this case, use the front panel (channel) A volume control to adjust the volume. s SPEAKER IMPEDANCE In STEREO and PARALLEL modes, the minimum load (=speaker) impedance is 4Ω. In BRIDGE mode it is 8Ω. Make sure that the impedance does not fall below this specified impedance.
