Sounds like a stupid question, but I honestly dont know the answer.
What terminals would you wire to when using the 4 channels into a 2 ch bridged configuration? ?

Would you sum the FL and FR into 1 ch and RL and RR into the other channel?
Or sum the FL + RL and FR + RR??

no, I didn't take offense or anything, I just meant I based the figures on the first bridged numbers. if it's 35x4 @ 4 ohms and 140x2 @ 4 ohms bridged, then that's what you'd get in 3 channel mode.
35x2 @ 4 ohms for front speakers
140 watts x 1 for the sub (4 ohms bridged)

sorry for it to sound like i was attacking you kiki.. it was meant to sound more of a question of if you found it was only 35x2

by GlassWolf » Mon Apr 25, 2005 1:00 pm

ok 50x2. it's an unregulated power supply then. it doesn't double it's power at half the load.
no big deal.
I was going based on the one spec you offered. I didn't look up the ratings.

by MrSo0h0o » Sun Apr 24, 2005 11:25 am

why is it only 35Wx2? the amp is rated at 50Wx2. and i dont think its one of those amps that overrate. its eclipse.

right. 2 channel mode
140x2 @ 4 ohms bridged

4 channel mode would be
70x4 @ 2 ohms, 35x4 @ 4 ohms

3 channel mode is
140x1 @ 4 ohms bridged & 35x2 (both @ 4 ohms)
or
140x1 @ 4 ohms bridged & 70x2 @ 2 ohms

by MrSo0h0o » Sat Apr 23, 2005 8:49 pm

damn, now im not sure.. b/c the manual says 140Wx2 @ 4ohm bridged. which probably means when all 4 ch are used combined to make 2 channels. im tryin to figure out what the RMS rating will be on the mono channel in 3 ch mode. :-/

by ridr4lif » Sat Apr 23, 2005 8:27 pm

Yes. If you were to bride one set (for example rear) you could run it at 4 ohms only, which im assuming is 140 watts x 1 bc you would be bridging channels 3 and 4, so it would be only 1 channel then ( i think...its late)

If you wanted to run the other 2 channels, you could run them to 2 ohms.

ok just to make it clear kiki, if i wanted to bridged the front channels, it would be 4ohm and 140Wx2. the remaining channels CAN be run down to 2ohm? can they only be 50Wx2? or is there a way to combine them or something so that i can run a sub off of them? i know, its not going to be much power, but i dont want to buy another amplifier right now.

by GlassWolf » Sat Apr 23, 2005 7:43 pm

4 channel mode: 2 ohms per channel min.
3 channel mode: 2 ohms per channel 1&2, 4 ohms on bridged channel 3&4 min.
2 channel mode: 4 ohms per channel min.
