Re: Bi-Amping from an AV Receiver?


I am running my 3806 & Kef Q5s biamped and found the improvement to be so big that I flogged my rear surrounds within a week. I listen at quite high levels and the extra headroom provided by the extra amp purely devoted to the treble unit, resulted in a far more refined, less fatiguing listening experience. Particularly with music. This might not be true for everone though.

The 3805 was a popular amp that didn't actually support biamping, but people did it anyway. Audioholics had an article on it if I remember and the same method would apply to you. Some people had hum problems and your auto EQ will no longer work, if you have it.
