Note 1): Regarding n.r. (not recommended) notes: The amplifier will be fully operational in bridge-mode into 2 ohm and high impedance (Hi-Z) loads, but due to physical constraints in
the construction, the max. output power will not be significantly higher than running individual channels and therefore this mode of operation is not recommended.
Note 2): Automatic -6 dB gain compensation when bridging channels.
Note 3): Separate 230 V or 115 V versions available. Not selectable on the amplifier.
Note 4): PAL can reduce the maximum output power to keep the power supply operating safely, and/or to prevent excessive current draw tripping the mains breaker.
Refer to the FP+ Operation Manual section 7.5.8 Power Average Limiter (PAL) for more information.
