Wow NH, the amp only weighs 88 pounds. 
Be careful, you wouldn't want to hurt those rockets.

NH,
You say you are going to run that amp in bridged mode ? If you do the amp will see a 2 ohm load running the RSC 200 center speaker and a 3 ohm load running the 550s.I sure hope that amp is stable running such a load.I have my doubts.

From what I have heard this thing personifies stable at 2 ohms but we will see. There are people out there running this amp bridged with three 4 ohm speakers across the front with zero problems so we will see. I emailed ATI the specifications on the speakers and what I was going to do, and they said go for it. The 1506 will keep up without so much as a hiccup.
I will know for sure in a few day's.

It will be interesting to see if indeed the ATI can handle this type of load.Make sure to report back.

I use ATI 1502 and 1505 amps. They are tanks.
I have driven 4 ohm speakers easily with them.

The Dark Side of the Moon SACD is fantastic. I like the resonating base note about 2 minutes into Time. Very well done, almost what multi-channel music was made for. Another one that is good is Dire Straits Brothers In Arms, 20th Annv. SACD.

I have no doubt you drove a 4 ohm speaker with an ATI amp.The question I was wondering was can it drive a 4 ohm speaker in bridged mode.
