[QUOTE="spazattack, post: 7074024, member: 627369"] Can someone explain why I’m seeing advertisements for “Bridgeable 1 Channel Class A/B Monoblock Amps?” Considering the lower power requirements per watt, and cooler running temperature of a class D amp, why would anyone even want a class A/B mono amp? And call me crazy but how do you bridge 1 channel, doesn’t it take at least 2 channels to even create a bridge? I’ll be the first to admit that I’m old school and I haven’t kept up with latest car audio trends, in fact my old school alternator eating class A tournament amplifiers are still sitting on the shelf in the cabinet, but have things really changed that much in car audio technology? Did I miss the big technical break through where they figured out how to bridge a 1 channel amp, or are there some unscrupulous idiots out there passing off bridgeable 2 channel amps as single channel Monoblock Amps?
