[QUOTE="Mitchell Fosgate III, post: 8898399, member: 691623"] [JUSTIFY]Bridge amplifiers would take on more voltage and therefore create more power. Possibly 4 times the amount as that of a single mono amplifier. Radios, as in single ended. As to whether two mono amps can be combined, if you consider pre-amplifiers and power amplifiers a mono amp, then yes, you can bridge them together. Using a pre-amplifier and a power amplifier would do. One more point then I'm done answering the question. Mono amp and a bridge amp. If we take a look at the possible types of distortion a amp brings up, you will have several classifications of them. Amplitude distortion, Frequency distortion, Clipping, crossover distortion, and phase distortion. Each combination of bridge amplification brings about different outcomes of desired results. Pick one results closest to that outcome of distortion. Minimize that distortion through conductance or something called Transistor coupling. This deals with biasing a transistor above or below 50%, class B amplifiers. I hope that helped. One more point then, I'll stop. On one more point on voltages. On a Pioneer double din AVHNEX4400 radio, Since voltages are important, and not really necessary is the parking brake wire, I think connecting the parking brake wire to the black wire on the radio side should be done automatically. That way the radio doesn't lock. No point in people calling you an incompetent after you connect it to the parking brake switch. Make sense to me.[/JUSTIFY] [/QUOTE]
