    So, this is a dual-mono and NON-COMMON GROUND? This won't work for SDA's or can the negative terminals be strapped on this?

    Is that symmetrical? i.e. is it the same reading if you reverse the probes? Sounds like it may be sharing the same secondaries, but has completely separate circuits from the rectifiers on.

    yes 20 (19.9) either way

    That is a nice amp...a friend of mine owns a similar one (not sure on the number) and he runs a set of Dali Ikon 6s with it...plenty of power.

    And welcome to Club Polk T.J....stick around a bit and get the feel here before you make an offer, though..OK...

    I'm still a bit confused, this amp is considered a non common ground amp?

    If he measured 20 ohms between the left and right negative terminals then yes it is, but the negative terminals would need to be strapped together.
