Default Bridging an amp... Circuit theory question???

half of 4 is 2, half of 100 is 50....!
what does that have to do with bridging an amp?
NOTHING!!!!

Each channel (of the two before bridging) since they are in series
sees THE WHOLE LOAD!

NOT HALF OF IT!

So Tony, what are you rambling about???

Hi,
Both amps are looking into the load together, not individually.
Well?

Hi,
Rephrase it, bridged two amp circuits sharing the 4 Ohm load.
Half of 4 is 2, right?

Where? It says the bridged amp (complete circuit) sees the load just as it
is - 4 ohms? A load is a load...now, when you look at the circuit and the
way it is derived (bridged), each side of the bridge is acting as it would
with a 2 ohm load...
