New member Username: Nick8124Post Number: 1 Registered: Apr-10 | I have a two channel amp. Home amplifier. I am wanting to make a mock center channel. I have one 8 ohm speaker hooked up to each channel. I want to hook up a "center" I have lying around. Also 8 ohms. I will hook the neg to the left channel and the pos to the right channel. What will be the resulting load on the amplifier per channel?once upon a time I had a multi meter..... An equation would be awesome! |

In order to bridge an amplifier, the output of one channel has to be inverted. You can, however, build an external circuit that would do this for you to bridge the amplifier yourself, if you know what you're doing around a soldering pen. That circuit, you can find easily with a google search. Be aware however, that doing this will require that your home amplifier be 4 ohm stable, as inverting one channel will cause the amp to "see half the presented load" |
