Hi! I want to power two component speakers (L and R) using the max output of my 4-channel. Can I bridge the 2 left channels togheter and the 2 right channels? I have 1 gain control for the front and 1 gain contol for the rear

 

The legend on the speaker terminals on the amp should show you where to hook the wires up to bridge the amp.....be careful with the gains and turn them both to minimum when you first turn it on.....the speakers will appreciate it......

on my amp there are only instructions for bridging the front channels and thear channels.
Does that mean I can't run 2 channels in stereo? (bridged on left and right)

 

Don't worry about how the wires are hooked up, follow the diagram for the leads and you will have 2 channels each with a gain control.......good luck getting them exactly even.....

When doing this, run the same signal to both RCA inputs on each side of the amp. For example, if you want the Front channels to be left, put a left RCA in both Front inputs. Then put a right RCA in both Rear inputs. You now have mono left on the front and mono right on the rear.

 

I'll do this

 

I find when running your fronts this way, you will probably want your driver side gain set down a touch from the other side (unless you've got some T/A)

 

OK, so I kinda skipped over the details on the front end of the amp....oopsies....

 

Why not just setting them the same and then play with balance?

 

Set those gains first with the balance set at even so the speakers are happy . From there you can adjust the HU balance so you are happy with the sound as the balance should only decrease left or right (not overdrive or damage your speakers).

On a side note, I've got my front stage T/A'd but obviously the left speakers are closer to me so they sound much louder. Therefore I run my balance at about +2 to the right. After T/A adjustments are any of you guys still messing with balance?
