Example. Two amplifiers, each rated 100 watts maximum for an impedance of 4 Ω (four Ohms); in bridge mode they will appear as a mono amp, rated 200 watts into 8 Ohms. This is the most commonly misunderstood mode of operation and it requires additional circuitry to implement if the pair of amplifiers does not have the facility built in. The image shows two identical amplifiers A1 and A2 connected in bridge mode. The signals presented to each amplifier of the pair are caused to be in anti-phase. In other words, as the signal in one amplifier is swinging positively, the signal in the other is swinging negatively. If, for example the maximum output voltage swing of each amplifier is between a peak of + and – 10 volts, when the output of one amplifier is at + 10 volts the output of the other will be at –10 volts, which means that the load (a loudspeaker) now sees a 20 volt peak difference between the “hot” (normally red ) output terminals. Driving the load between two signals of opposite electrical polarity makes each amplifier see only half the load's electrical impedance.
