    I really dont spend much time in atlanta anymore, but I can get you hooked up pretty cheap with my brothers shop. as soon as I can get him the meter and software I will let you know.


    I know I posted up the wrong pic, thats why I mentioned it in my last post. If you bridge the terminals on the amp then it should drop the load, but by using 1 set of terminals, it should remain a 2ohm load.

    you cant bridge a mono amp though, even if there is 2 outputs. Thats the whole point of mono.

    its still only 1 channel, but with 2 sets of terminals. Imagine it being like a 2 channel amp. its good at a set load using 1 set of terminals, and another bridging the channels. This is the same way. Using only 1 set its like a standard amp. Using both sets(wired like you would a 2ch amp) its internally bridged requiring a different load.
