[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 514592, member: 555320"] You said mono amps have better sound quality than 2-channel amps before you mentioned anything about bridging. Prove it. But regardless, bridged or not, prove that a mono amp sounds better than a 2-channel. Plus, THD is a single measurement, and alone can not determine the "sound quality" of any amp. Damping factor, slew rate, channel separation (on 2-channel amps) and S/N ratio are just a few.......... And just because THD increases, doesn't mean it will be by enough to make an audible difference [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] Mono amps are *generally* class D, two channels are normally class a/b. Class D's *generally* aren't as "clean" as Class a/b to begin with. But when most people run their subs into 10%+ distortion anyways, I highly doubt that a little inaudible change in THD is going to make that big of a difference. [/QUOTE]
