[QUOTE="tommyk90, post: 309251, member: 545293"] What he said. Since your subs are SVC (4 ohm i presume) you can't bridge the amp because the ohm load will be too low. The only option you have for using the bridge channel is the wire the subs in series which will produce a 8 ohm bridged load, and get the same kind of power you have now. The only way to be able to bridge the amp and have it run at a safe ohm load is to get either: 2 SVC 2 ohm subs or 2 DVC 4 ohm subs. Actually, now that i think about it, my friend has that amp running his HE2, which is DVC 4 ohm. So he has his running at 2 ohms bridged and hasn't had a problem yet. It's NOT recommended, but i guess you can just hook both subs up to the bridged channel and see what happens. More than likely you could fry the amp, so i wouldn't take the risk. [/QUOTE]
