Is it possible to combine multiple amplifiers to get higher power?

[QUOTE="Roy Andrews, post: 216838, member: 15263"] What he said!!!!!!! You connect the output terminals of 2 unique, distinct amps, you WILL end up with 2 blown amps & a large repair bill. PERIOD!!!! I've been working with & repairing these things since the Crown DC300 was a thing, and I GUARANTEE you will get fried amp omelet if you proceed with your plan. ALL of your amps support bridge mono mode according to Crown (giving either 900 / 1050 watts into 8 ohms). That is a ton of power, because Crown don't typically use the wildly exaggerated power figures that many cheap chinesium products do. Look up in the product manual how to configure bridge mono, use it, be happy. Oh, and put a big piece of tape on the front & back indicating it is in bridge mode so you don't forget & try to use it for some other FoH or monitors that can't take that kind of power. [/QUOTE]
