Appendix - Bridging The
Architect
Appendix
Caution - When bridging the Architect, the
minimum speaker load impedance on that
bridged output is 4 ohms. In a bridged system,
each channel of the bridged pair “sees” one half
of the speaker load. This means that a bridged
amp driving a 4 ohm speaker is operating into a 2
ohm load.
To increase the output power of the Architect, you can join
(bridge) the two channels of the Architect into a single channel of
400 watts. Accomplishing this is a simple matter. Just connect the
audio input to both channels of the amp using a ‘Y’ cord adapter
and then connect the speaker terminals as shown in the diagram
below.
