Easy (for you) Rca's into bridged 4 channel amp?

[shortbuss45]

I am hooking up 1 set of components bridged on a 4 channel amp and wanted to know if I should hook up the LEFT rca to the left of the 1/2 channel and the RIGHT rca to the right of the 3/4 channel? Or should I just hook it up normally to the 1/2 channel? Which way to retain balance function? I have no rear fill and these are coming from a 9857. Thanks in advance.

i have no idea what you are taking about, but does the amp have an option for a parallel input or something of that sorts?

if the left is hooked up to the 1 / 2 channels (usually front) at the speaker output, then put the left rca on the left 1 / 2 (again, usually front) rca's. hope that made sense. you can also use y adapters, i got some krystal kable ones if you need.

I'm running a 4ch bridged to my comps as well. Hook the left RCA on 1/2(front) and the right RCA on 3/4(rear)

Doesn't it depend on the manufacturer which channels you use for RCA input bridged? Just plug in the RCA's wherever it will work. Play with the balance on your HU, and if its backwards, switch the RCA's around.

A lot of amps when bridged sum from both channels of one pair. So channel 1/2 while are bridged might still need input signal from both channels. A Y adapter should be used, refer to the manual to verif your amp needs this.
