Mono Bridging — Channels 3+4 and 5+6 When you bridge channels 3+4 and/or 5+6, your speakers are connected to the bridged channels differently.

However, if the same channel is at fault when you reverse the Left and Right channel pair cables to your HCA-806A (turn it off before moving wires), it may indicate trouble within the power amplifier itself. We suggest you contact your authorized Parasound Dealer or Installer, or call
