Bridged Mono help. Someone save me!!!

I’ll try this again now that my blood sugar is where it should be!

28.28V equates to 100W into an 8Ω load. When we consider the power available from our high power amplifiers, especially when in Bridge, a shock hazard exists from holding the plug in a hand. By the time we get to 1500W the connector has close to the US power grid voltage. IIRC Europe mandated that SpeakOn connectors be installed on the equipment being imported into the area.

On a side note it's really interesting reading what everyone has to say. I have to do AC and DC theory work all the time in school but I never really apply it at work. I've come to the conclusion that I hate the adaptor the adaptor rig that GC gave me. And I need to use a banana to speakon and call it a day
 
The type with screws are sooooo easy to work with (speakons), but get Neutrik brand. Banana can be tough to solder without a heavy iron. Screw type of the proper spacing it easier.

Wire, just drop by homeo depot as het the sjxxxxx round wire you want, pennies a ft.

Sir Paul, you’re murderin’ the kings English! :laugh:
 
Just remember that the red banana connects to +1.

And it’s nothing to go bananas over. LOL

I'm just gunna have Sweetwater make me one. I was going to butcher the current banana to 1/4 the head came with, probably before I was born, but figure I'll just get a new one. Sad part is....I'm an electrician by trade!! Just don't like f'in with my own stuff sometimes.

Maybe I got it wrong. Somethin’ to do with the saints. Maybe we have to mail Harry a bunch of letters? I thot I was told to say mail Harry 50 times. I’m not the the sharpest hammer in the tool box.

Lemme guess. It was a guy in a robe and his sister Rosemary talking about the first four flats, wasn't it? You need to stay off the Class D Tort for a while...

Yah! I remember something about a robe! And he gave me a little plastic package with a bunch of beads and a cross. He seemed upset that I chugged the goblet of wine, asked for a refill. That’s when he stuck me in the drunk tank and kinda chewed me out from behind a curtain. I told him is was after 5 in the Philippines.

Oh it was beads! I was thinking flats like BEADGCF...
