Theres no website or info i can find. I doubt its RMS, after opening the case it looks more like 20w RMS
The info ive given is all i can find from ebay..... Koac V3 Amplifier 400W.... |

What 'could' happen if i bridged it and its not bridgable? Nothing? Flames?
If its tri mode, then doesnt that mean you can run speakers off each channel and bridge a sub between the channels? Sorry, im just trying to understand the thing..... |

You would be surprised. I had this $30 amp I brought from cooki_monsta on here that looked cheap and nasty but it pumped my eclipse sub really well and that was rated at 300wrms so you can get some good cheap stuff

Actually forget about it, i managed to find some info on this "amp" and it took a fukin while after sorting through heaps of eBay ads....
I refer you to this page, and a warning to anyone looking to buy this amp. Advertised as 400W........ chip inside is rated at 20w per channel..... http://www.rogerj.co.uk/KOAC_%20amplifier.htm |

If you look at what you posted originally you actually answered your own question
"2 OHM Stable & TRI-MODE Connection Possible " So obviously is bridgeable....

Tri mode means that you can run 2 stereo channels and 1 mono channel all at the same time.....
