I use the ART SLA-2 to power two separate Bogner 1x12 cubes. Stereo. I don't know what's the use of bridged mode - doesn't that mean it's not in stereo?
"Bridge" mode is if you want to combine both sides of a power amp into one single output in order to get double the power into a single output. Which means the amp is no longer able to run as stereo output only a single mono double powered output. So no more stereo at that point. Basically if you have 75 watts each on the left and right sides in stereo and hit bridge you then have 150watts in mono because it combines the 2 into 1.
Okay, then. Why would anyone want to run an Axe-Fx in mono? For heavy rhythm guitar it would be fine, but cleans or anything with reverb / delay / chorus will sound terrible (at least it does to me) in mono. I realize that the audiences isn't usually going to hear your sound in stereo. But to me, for my own satisfaction and enjoyment, it MUST be stereo, or I'll walk off stage. Especially for those with in-ear monitors.
