RMB 1066 in BRIDGED MODE??

[Jsapp]

I am considering purchasing an RMB 1066 to go with my RSX 1055. What I would do is run the 1066 in BRIDGED Mode giving 3 X 150 W for my fron speakers Paradigm Monitor 7, and CC 370. these speakers are 8 ohms and faairly sensative (about 93 db on the 7s) I would let the internal amps on the 1055 run the rears.

My question is has anyone used a RMB 1066 in bridged mode? What were the results. Is the sound quality I could expect better or worse than non bridged amps.

I have already received some info from the seller and don't sdoubt him just I'd like some more input or experience to go on.

I am interested in hearing more about this as well as I plan to do the exact same thing.

Any takers?

Just make sure that your speakers are 8ohms as the amp sees each as 4ohms. I've emailed Rotel about the specs of the amp in bridged mode and was told SNR/THD are the same as in stereo mode. Damping factor is halfed but still more than enough to control the speakers. To be quite honest when I ran my 1066 in bridged mode the only difference I could make out was the fact that it was louder(3db increase). Clarity, soundstage, etc all sounded the same.
