Hi, i just bought a ahb2 last month and thinking of getting a 2nd one to pair it up as mono blocks.
Just wonder if i can used them as dual mono blocks. Left channel to drive high frequencies and right channel to drive low. Just set the dip switch on the back to bridge. And reversing the polarity of one channel. I suppose the black terminals on the back is the ground channel.
Then i dont need to use a split cables for the input.
Available. I am also using that method. see

I asked
@John_Siau if this method would cause problems for ahb2. He replied that there was no problem.
John said : "Crosstalk is never an issue with the AHB2. There will be no audible crosstalk from the AHB2 in any system configuration.
Instead the goal should be to place the same load on both amplifier. Most of the power will be consumed by the low-frequency channel. Because of this, you want to combine one low frequency channel with one high frequency channel in each amplifier. When this is done, the system will achieve the highest possible headroom.
Use one amp for the left speaker and the other for the right speaker. This will put the same load on both amplifiers. There will be no interaction between the high-frequency channel and the low frequency channel because crosstalk is non-existent in the AHB2. The regulated power supply rails in the AHB2 help to make this possible.
I would suggest running the high frequency on channel 1 and the low frequency on channel 2. This is a safer configuration if someone accidentally flips the stereo-mono switch. If mono mode gets turned on, the high-frequency signal will go to both drivers and this will not hurt the low-frequency driver. This channel assignment will prevent accidental routing of the low frequencies to the high-frequency driver (which could be damaging).
I used this method because I use a JBL M2 which requires a 4ch amplifier because there is no built-in crossover. But even ordinary speakers with crossovers will work same.
