About bridged mode
Speaker impedance is max. 4
W, please carefully
check. Improper connection to the amplifier may
result in malfunction or personal injury due to
burns from overheating.
For bridged mode for a two-channel amplifier,
with a 4
W load, either wire two 8 W speakers in
parallel, Left

single 4
W speaker. For other amplifiers, please
follow the speaker output connection diagram for
bridging shown on rear: two 8
W speakers in par-
allel for a 4
W load or a single 4 W speaker per
channel.
For any further enquiries, contact your local
authorized Pioneer dealer or customer service.
