• STEREO mode
In this mode, channels A and B operate independently
(as a conventional stereo amp).
The CHANNEL A input signal will be output from
the CHANNEL A output jacks, and the CHANNEL B
input signal will be output from the CHANNEL B
output jacks.
• BRIDGE mode
In this mode, the CHANNEL A input signal will be
output from the BRIDGE output jacks. In this case,
use the rear panel CHANNEL A volume control to
adjust the volume.
• PARALLEL mode
In this mode, the CHANNEL A input signal will be
output from the output jacks of both channels A and
B. The CHANNEL B input jack is not used. The
CHANNEL A and B volumes can be adjusted
independently.

filter on. (The cut-off frequen-
cies are variable.)
If you select “LOW CUT,” you can use the frequency
