Hi Jason,

The LB1 was not discontinued it was changed to the LB1 Signature.

Yes we make a Y cable which allows you to bridge 2 of the 9B channels but we do not recommend that unless the impedance is 8 ohms or higher.

I see, thanks James.  Any problem with driving an AB2M-C with a 9B  SST, then?  I suppose it's not terribly critical, as the 4B SST will be used for two channel on its own.

One channel fof the 9B will not be enough for the AB2.

It wasnt enough for my LB1's. My LB1 needed two channels of 9B bridged or at least one 4B to sound alive. Thats the problem with those Dynaudio drivers. They are power-hungry bastardz!     :lol:

That's promising for me, then.  The LB1 is listed with an impedance of 4 ohms, nominal.  The AB2 is listed at 6 ohms.  Hopefully I will have no problem bridging two channels on the 9B.

Jason,

You can bi-amp the AB2M-C with the 9B-SST.
