Anyone know anything about the Denon DCA-800???

I got it from a friend in a trade... It works fine
and im using it now but I cant seem to find ANY documentation on it on the web. Only in diff languages... Maint thing i want to know is that if it is compatible to push my audiobahn AW1200Q...
the amp can be switched to 2ohm but under the 2ohm it says (4 ohm bridged)... does that mean its not 2ohm if i bridge the outputs? only 4?

it means it is 2 ohm in stereo mode and 4 ohm in
mono mode. so this amp is no good for your audiobahn sub.

you can run that amp with the sub.. if it's dual 4 ohm coils, you can either wire them in series and then bridge the amp, or run 1 coil per chanel.

it is not good for the sub to have one channel one each coil. because the left and right signals are not 100% the same.thus the voice coils do not get the same signal , this in turn will kill the sub within time.it may take some time but it will happen.
