Amp mod - bridging the unbridgeable

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

I emailed BK Elec a while back and asked if I could bridge a MXFamp and there said yes but only if you do something with polarity of one of the input channels and some other jiggery pokery you can bridge them. I didn't fancy doing this so sold the amp in the end and got something designed for the job. Let us know if your sucessful as would be good to know if it works. good old workhorses these.

	It sounds like it´s ok with these, but be carefull. I had a couple of Harrison mosfet amps (X1600?) that were already bridged internally so no. I´ve also seen some Profsound amps made in the same way. More importantly, I´m pretty sure some of the Powersoft Digam amps use that trick, as well as the T-Amp D2800, D3400, etc, so maybe there´s a good reason some amps don´t have a bridge mode.
