amp bridging

[dijm8]

ok i heard that if you bridge a amp u can produce maximun power.
i got a 2 channel amp that is bridgable
ok this is wot i have been told: + - + - thats wot all amps say, ok my sub is connected to the far left and far right of the + and -, i got told if i connect the two + and - in the middle it will produce more power is this possible or right.
thanks for your help guys

errrr...

Usually its the two outermost terminals used, so your setup is correct. (ie channel 1 + with channel 2 -) Your amp will have a diagram how to bridge, follow this and you'll be sweet. This is because modern bridgeable amps have the internals wired up to do so. (something to do with the signal, not 100% but i believe some sort of inverting is involved? Anyone) As to having more power if you bridge channel 1 - with channel 2 +, no

As Joe Peeps says, you have it setup correctly. The first + and - are one channel, the second + and - is the second channel. If the amp is bridgeable, the + and - on the outside are the connections you use. Take a look at the user manual, it will run through it.

Its already setup internally - you dont need to do anything.
