Bridged mode

[jormajj]

Has anyone tried AMP1 in bridged mode ?
What is the best way for doing the input connections ?
Is it OK, instead of the OAOUT1 to INV2 connection,
to send one side of balanced XLR connection to each input,
and connect the outputs as in bridged mode ?

I have not yet bridged my AMP1, though it is my plan to do so. But I have worked with other bridged amps. My opinion is that using the XLR idea should work in theory, but it is less robust due to possibility of the signal being improperly balanced, or one of the two pins getting disconnected / shorted, etc. You could have a nasty surprise if the input jack gets unplugged and one pin is disconnected before the other.
