Bridging The amplifier

HT Rambler · 04-22-2010, 09:30 AM

The jl audio 500/5 has the 2 rear channels and two front channels at different wattage ratings. Without looking i think the fronts are 125x2 and the rears are 50x2 and then the sub output. I have not decided on the rears yet ,may or may not go with them. One suggestion was to bridge the channels and use no rears. With that being said my question is can the left and right be bridged being diff wattage outputs. I know front and rear can be bridged but that will have different wattage for one channel (125x2) bridged will be a lot stronger than (50x2).
Im just trying to get the most out of my amp without leaving the rear channels unused ??? Any suggestions ??
