[QUOTE="Frraksurred, post: 87284, member: 544871"] By "bridging" the rear wire, what exactly do you mean? Did you tap into one of the rear spkr wires to run a signal to your 5th spkr, or did you actually bridge the channels (wire the left positive wire and the right negative wire in an attempt to double the power)? I'm assuming you tapped in to one of the rear spkr channels to run your 5th spkr, and if that's the case, that is where you're problem is. You are running your H/U into a reduced ohm load, which it is not designed for and will be damaged it if you don't undo it immediately (if it's not already). If you actually bridged the rear channels, that's even WORSE! Whaaatever you do, if you still have a H/U, undo that mess and break out your H/U's manual and [I]follow directions[/I]. One spkr per ch. ...this is not an ampliphier. [/QUOTE]
