Tiny point of order?

Bridged mode effectively puts the amplifier outputs in series and thus the power output into any specified single channel Z is multipled theoretically by 4.

However, since each channel now "sees" only half the load value, as the book says, you must not load it below its minumum rated impedance.

Bridged operation used to be a bit notorious for stability issues, I dare say these have been sorted these days?

Dave.
