Depends on the amp. RTFM?

There is no hard and fast rule, but for inputs you may find that your amp has a switch to use either left or left+right (mixed mono).

Also, there's no easy way to tell which outputs will be the bridged outputs, unless your amp is handily labelled

It's not the same model, but my Genesis appears to sort itself out internally - if it's the same logic behind it (which I imagine it would be), my 'manual' says just use one & the thing will figure itself out... for the five channel (although there seems to be 6 ) to get the front left/rear left to 'add' to get 'high power mode' as it calls it, it just takes the one input for both & gets very loud indeed

luke,

maybe i stand to be corrected, but remember its basically 2 100watt amps (btw actually rated at 2x145)in one package , so i think it has to be bridged properly, dont think it will just sort itself out as someone earlier stated.
