I have an Autotek MX1500.1. Its listed as a Class X mono amp and has its power ratings listed as 1 ch but the amp has 2 sets of speaker outputs. One of the positive terminals has a box around it and says "bridged" underneath it. I'm used to an amp saying bridged under 2 terminals but this just has it under 1 positive. My last mono amp, Rockford BD1000, only had 1 set of speaker terminals so I was a lil confused when I saw this amp had 2. I bought this amp in 04 and had the shop throw it in the car for me so I never got a chance to check it out. Now Im putting it in my Civic and I just noticed this.

So my question is, how would I wire my sub box to the amp? I have 1 pair of wires coming from the box. Would I put them to the positive terminal that says bridged and the negative next to it? Usually a 2 ch will have you use one terminal from each ch so this 1 ch with 2 outputs deal is throwing me off.

Thanks,
Frankie

 

Use the positive that says bridged and the negative from the other channel

 

it is still one channel it is so you don't have to bridge one sub off the other. Ie if the amp is 2ohm stable then you can use each channel at 1ohm. It looks like a 2ch but isn't it gives you the ability to run separate wiring my old Diamond d5600.1 was like that. Do a search for the owner's manual

 

I searched for the owners manual but I couldnt find it. So the other speaker output is just for convenience?
