 4 CHANNEL

Here we show how to use the 4 channel amplifiers as full range 2 or 3 channel units by 

taking advantage of the mono bridging capability of all Crunch amplifiers.

The following example shows how to create a 3 channel system by mono bridging 

channel pair 3 / 4. In order to create a 2 channel system, simply follow the example to 
also mono bridge channel pair 1 / 2.

- Connect the inputs of channel pair 1/2 to a suitable stereo source, e.g. a head unit 
with good quality RCA cables.

TIP: If you are using the mono sub bass output of an active crossover, there is nothing 

- A  MONO signal source is required to bridge channel pair 3/4, such as would be 

wrong with switching in  the low pass filter in these amplifiers for a steeper low pass 

available from the mono sub bass output of an active crossover, whether standalone, 

rolloff.

or built into a head unit or equalizer. 
Important: Do not be tempted to connect the hot, or positive outputs, from any source 

together to obtain a mono signal, as this could very well damage the output stage of

that source.
- It is necessary to feed the SAME signal to both left and right inputs via a Y-adapter 

RCA cable.

- Connect the mono speaker positive terminal to the LEFT +, and its negative terminal 

to RIGHT - as shown.
