Bryston 4B-ST

I have 2 Bryston 4B SST amps, one for the bass and the other to drive the mid and high. I noticed recently that they have been operating differently, with reference to the LED light indicator found at the back panel near to the power cord plug receptacle on the side of Ch 1.
After installation, when the amps are connected to the A/C power wall outlet (which is switched on), the LED indicator at the back panel is green for both amps. However, when I switch on the amps by pressing on the membrane switch on the front panel, for one of the amps, the LED indicator on the back panel remains green throughout, while, for the other amp (driving the bass), the back panel LED indicator turns to orange. Meanwhile, for both amps, the LED indicator on the front panel turns green as per normal. When I play the CD, the sound still comes out normally.

In other words, my question is whether the amp is functioning properly when the LED indicator on the back panel turns orange when I switch on the amp vide the membrane switch at the front. For information, I had switched the power cords and the result is the same, just to ensure that the power cord is not the source of the problem.

Grateful for any advice.

Noslepums, just curious if you measured actual impedance, or resistance. If just resistance, you can have dips below that. Also you might get away with using non-inductive resistors in series with drivers, if they have enough power handling for your needs. You will lose some volume, but may not be much, depending on the value of the resistor. Some will say this may not sound good, but Harman Kardon used these on a Citation amp, I believe. Speaker companies do it also, for various reasons. Others do this, and it is quite common for A/V receivers to do this also.

Hello Hifihvn,
No sir, no measurements, speakers are not done yet.
Dual woofers are strongly considered though, so that alone
would reduce the load. It didn't cross my mind to simply
add resistance, that would be pretty foolproof.
