Help with "bridging" an amp
I have only one sub, and want to plug it in a two channel amp. If I run just
one channel alone to the sub, it is not going to sound right, because each side of the balancing has different sounds, right? What if I take the positive of one channel, and the negative of the other? Is this bridging? Thanks for your help. |

I dont think so.
How about your combine the positives and the negatives and see what happens. "Jp" wrote in message news:n%ptd.179328$bk1.120808@fed1read05...

Ok, so what happens if I do what I said... just plug the + of one side and -
of the other? What would this do, would it just split the sound with the same power? Thanks agian. "Clob" wrote in message news:bsqtd.1221$4E6.516@trnddc06... I dont think so.

For a subwoofer, the right and left channels are typically the same. If you need to bridge your amp, make sure it's built so you can do that. Typically to bridge an amp, you take the negative of one side and the positive of the other. If your amp isn't made to do that, it's not bridging.. |

Sory, I was wrong. I forgot that the signal also goes through the negative
too lol. "Bruce Chang" wrote in message . com... "Jp" wrote in message news:n%ptd.179328$bk1.120808@fed1read05... I have only one sub, and want to plug it in a two channel amp.
