Google your model number or go to www.poweracoustik.com and download the owners manual. You can bridge it to 2 channels 4 ohm stable only!

SOURCE: when I bridge the BAMF 2200/2 Power Acoustik amp it cuts off

Hello munchisfun,

I'd suspect that the amp is operating into too low of an impedance and going into protection.

The 2200/2 is not rated to drive a 2ohm load when bridged (most 2-channel amps aren't) and when you connect 2 4ohm subs in parallel, the load is 2ohms. I'd run one sub from each channel.

Hope this helps.

Hello, your problem is that your amp is rated at 4 ohms bridged mono ans 2 ohms stereo. If your running it in stereo you need to raise the ohms to 2 ohms a channel and if your running it bridged into 1 channel you need to be running it at 4 ohms. Please rate this solution please so I can prgress on FixYa.com. Thanks!

How do I wire a Power Acoustik MSA4-1300D Amp to a single subwoofer?

It depends on how many channels are on the Amp. If it's a 2 channel you can bridge it using the positive on one channel and use the negative on the other channel. The Amp will give the sub more power bridging the sub.

How do i find how many ohms my amp is because i cant find it here the name of my amp is poweracustick lt 980-2 of 980 watt i want to know that so i know what speaker to hook up with

According to a listing on epinions, it appears that the amp is 8 ohms per channel standard, and can be bridged to 4ohms.

One post says that he has it bridged to 4 ohms and is getting 560 watts of output.

I couldn't find a manual for it, so you may want to contact Power Acoustik to be sure.

I have to bridge my subs because the one channel isnt working

Did you check the fuse?

If you have a bad channel I wouldn't suggest bridging I would look into getting it fixed or using the remaining functioning chanel.

Lt960-4 power acoustik Amp 4 channels mono

it can be used as a bass amp. if each pair of channels is bridged then you will basically have a 2 channel amp. just be sure to set the x-over's to lpf for subwoofers. I checked the power ratings, and bridged at a 4 ohm load will give you 250 rms watts per sub, so thats enough to run most 10's or 12's. there wasnt a rating for a 2 ohm load, but your amp should support it.
