Eltbee , I spoke with an authorized NAD service tech a few years ago and told him I was having trouble with an NAD 214 that I was running in bridged mode. He said that in bridged mode excess stress is placed on the amp. During the course of that conversation he said that running only one channel of stereo amp actually reduced the load and would result in higher output while incurring less stress. I don't know if this statement is for amplifiers in general or if it only applies to the model in question, but it kind of makes sense to me.
bad for an amplifier when there is no speakers ?
I have a YBA amp that I want to leave ON all the time because it takes forever to warm it up but I always disconnect the speakers that is connected to it because I use a different amp (receiver) to watch movie and this is my only pair of front speakers. My question is, Is it bad for my YBA amp to leave it on with no speakers connected?
appreciate any input.
Thanks
