SI T-amp - Bridging for mono block use?

midside · 4th October 2006, 08:04 PM

Is there a way to bridge the SI T-amp for monoblock use or can you just run 1 side and expect twice the power to 1 speaker?

That is, I want to use 2 of these and get 30W per side.

Thanks in advance!

This should be asked in the Class D forum.

But the answer is no, you cannot bridge the SI.

I myself have mono"d the inputs on two of my Super T amps.

It has been explained here that you can not bridge the t-amp, because the design of the amp is allready bridged.

That being said, I do feel that there is a performance gain, by completely seperating the two channels.

I have experimented with different by-amp configurations, and feel I gained the best sound using a dual mono configuration.
