|  NAD 3140 questions | Scribe1964 Apr 4, 2001 3:13 PM | | Hello all. I recently got an NAD 3140 Integrated Amp, but it didn't come with a manual. I have two questions for anyone out there who might be familiar with this model. First, what is SLC? There's a button on the back for it. Second, there is also a button for bridging. Should the button be pressed in or out? It seems logical to me that it should be in for briding, since it isn't labeled "bridging off," but when it is pressed in, the amp sounds weird. Thank you, in advance. |

SLC I don't remember as I have not had an NAD around for a bunch of years but there was a feature called Soft Clipping which I suspect was just that...don't use it unless you are in the habit of blasting your music and clipping your amp and in that case it might save you from buying some new speaker drivers.

When it is pressed in, it sounds great and it is definitely in stereo. So could pressing it in take it out of bridging mode??? |
