Each channel operates independently and has its own input connectors, sensitivity level controls, automatic limiter, fault protection circuitry, power amp, and speaker outputs.
  • Page 8 Applications Mono Bridge Operation The two internal power amplifiers (CH1 and CH2 or CH3 and CH4) can be bridged together to form a single, higher powered amp.
