Definition | Causes

The SPA-Q amplifier cannot output 4 channels utilizing High Impendence (70/100v) due to the power requirements of High Impedance Speakers. 


 

Solution | Workaround

The workaround is to put the speaker into 2 channel Bridged mode. 

While disconnected from the Core, select the Amplifier Output component and change the property for Channel Configuration from its default of "A B C D 4 Channel" to "A+B C+D 2 Channel, A B Bridged C D Bridged". 

After changing you will be able to “Save to Core and Run”.
