Eclipse 36401 2 ohm stable?

[ace_800 5,000+ posts]

So I picked up this OS Eclipse 36401 today BNIB for cheap. The specs say its a 2/3/4 channel and power is:

2ohm 70w x 4

4ohm 50w x 4

4ohm bridged 140w x 2

Is there anyway to know if the rear channel can be bridged to run at 2ohm? I know its underrated and will run this instead of the 2 amps I was planning on running if it is stable at 2 ohm bridged.

It will not run 2 ohm bridged.

How will it run at 2 ohm 4 channel and not bridged? I've been told eclipse's amps are 2ohm stable bridged....

Just asking cause I would rather run this than the kickers I have.

2 ohm bridged is the same as running in 1 ohm stereo. If it was able to do it reliably, they would have advertised it. There are VERY FEW 4 channel amps that are 1 ohm stereo/2 ohm mono stable.
