question on Audiogon listing

Frank (or anyone else knowledgable),
Can you tell me if this unit will work into a 3-4 load and, if so, what will the maximum power rating be?

thanks in advance!

The original was about 75 watts per channel, it is safe into 4 ohm loads but we would have reservations about two ohm loads (only two output devices per channel in this little Hafler mechanical package. It was a sweet sounding amplifier.

Frank,
Thanks very much.
One more question: from the photo, it looks like the unit is bridgeable. In bridge mode, would the rated power be any higher into a 4 ohm load or is it, as your note suggests, current-limited to ~75W?

The Hafler bridge mode scheme was defeated when our circuits were installed because it was not good musically. Call me for more help about this. 651-330-9871.
