OPERATING MODE SWITCHES There are 3 different operating modes switchable for the CPD series amplifiers. STEREO - Each channel remains independent. The amplifier may be used for two different signals. PARALLEL - This setting connects both inputs together. One signal feeds both channels. Each channel's Gain control and loudspeaker connection remain independent. BRIDGE - This setting combines both channels into a single channel with twice the output power. Use only the first channel's input and Gain control.
