it's a mono amp but they made it so you can hook up 2 subs..

it's kinda like it's already bridged so you can't bridge it by hooking up ++

oh and just for the future, dont set your gains to high wt this amp.

I think we've answered this one about 20 times.

Those aren't 2 seperate speaker outputs. It's a single channel with a 2nd set of terminals wired parallel to make it easier to wire up multiple voice coils. Every mono class D I've seen is done like this. If you connect a 4 ohm coil to each amp terminal the amp sees 2 ohms. If you wire 2 ohms to each terminal the amp sees 1 ohm...
