🤣

why not…lol

J/K

Anyways the way bridging works is you get more power than running stereo. When you switch it into Bridged Mode it alters what tabs have to have power running to them.

So if you are saying that yours runs 175 rms x 2 (stereo) Bridged its going to put out upwards of 400 to 600 watts.

Just switching from mono to bridged is not the same thing. Mono it will still put out the 175 just it won;t have a stero sound anymore, bridged will put out more power. Then you have to see what its stable too in bridged mode.

Thats why I ask. 🙂
