If a speaker has four binding posts for two times the (usual) number of speaker cables, then what does removing the binding posts (linking the two pairs) actually do? I am not clear if this by-passes the high/ low passive filter in the speaker or not. If it does not do that, I cannot see how...

I am going to give building an amp a try now. I just ordered a Bang & Olufsen ICEpower 50ASX2 SE 2x50W Class D Amplifier, and a B&O ICEpower 125ASX2 amplifier module. This will give me enough power to power 2 of my new speakers (bi-amped). Iam still looking for one more of each to finish off the...

Hi, Complete novice here, and know just enough to be dangerous. Looking for a receiver that will do the following, and i'm having difficulty wading through the sea of receivers with multi-zones that I don't need. I basically want a 7.2.2 setup (I think). To me, that means Left Front Sub...

Hi-long time lurker, first post. I have a Denon X4000 with Audyssey Platinum (what ever that is). Additionally, I have JBL Cinema speakers actively bi-amped using the Crown Dsi amps. These amps have presets for my specific LCR speakers (4622). Since the amps are determining the x-over and...

I am wondering what type of benefit if any bi-amping will give me. When I talked to the QSC rep. he highly recommended it for various reasons. Here is some background. The speakers I own are QSC 2150 I'll post some specs later. They have an option when wiring your speakers to select either...

Hi Experts, I'm looking for a list of amplifiers that can output bi-amp to power my front towers. The room size is not determined yet cause I will be moving to a bigger space in couple of months so I will leave that out. I want a list that can work perfectly and match my front towers and works...

I want to see what changes biamplification. I think an analog ActiveCrossover would be helpful.- any suggestion? I see lots of Rane AC 22 for $200. Integra dtr7.8 A/V reciever pre-outs to Rane AC 22 to four Hafler se240 amps to pair of Paradigm studio 60 v3 No modifications just remove the...

Also, I'm curious about if there are any receivers out there that will allow me to bi-amp my front speakers and still give me the capability of having front heights? Maybe a 9.1 receiver that will then be running as a 7.1? I know there are receivers out there that will run a 7.1 setup while...

I have an Onkyo 818 running 5.1 with two unused channels. Do you think it's worth bi amping my 685 speakers (mains) or keep it set up just running it normally? Sent from my iPhone using HTShack

http://www.amazon.com/Onkyo-TX-SR607-7-2-Channel-Surround-Receiver/dp/B001VEI2KO I saw this on CL for $200. It shows "bi-amp," on the back of it. I have Polk Tsi300 speakers. It has the bi-amp posts (or at least two sets of posts). If I get this receiver, do I need to do anything else to...

Hi people, I'm looking to Bi-Amp a pair of Tannoy Revolution R2 speakers, and I'm wondering if it can be done with a single receiver... The Receiver is a Rotel RSX-972. It contains five separate 75 watt power amps -- one for each channel (front left, front right, rear left, rear right and...

Finished installing new Marantz SR6006 last night and ran first calibration. WOW what a change from the Pioneer VSX 1019 I have been using for the last 4 years. Even picture quality from blue ray is improved. Very happy I plan on running new speaker wires today going from 16awg to 12 I...

Hello All, I'm looking for advice as to how I should bi-amp my 3 way towers. I have had them bi-amped for a while now using an active crossover/processor (DCX2496). They sound pretty good, but I think they'd sound better if I removed the passive crossover network from inside the speaker...

Hello everyone, I'm a first time HiFi owner with a pair of 683s and a Rotel RSX 1550. The purpose of this thread is to find out how to better maximize my use of that system without purchasing more stuff. I worry my 683s (200w peak) aren't performing at their best with only 100Wpc driving them...

Okay, I am thinking of getting the pioneer vsx1121k but not set in stone yet so I am referencing the info from this reciever and I am guessing it is the same with most recievers that are bi-ampable. Now with wiring up for bi-amping the speaker, polk audio monitor 40 floor standing speakers, you...

The title says it all. At this point, I'm not using two of my 7 channels on my receiver. What is your preference and why. My co-worker said adding more speakers would be his vote. He said it would help create a more encompassing sound stage. I can't say I disagree, but I like the idea of...

So I have a HK AVR347, which allows for using surround back for bi-amping. However, it requires that the signal be input via analog. My only known option is to use the audio output on the tv to an input on the receiver. This is an issue because the audio isn't in sync anymore. An idea suddenly...

I just purchased the Bowers and Wilkins CM7s, CM Center and the CM1s for the rear, in the manual it says you can Bi-Wire them but says nothing about Bi-Amping, I have the Onkyo TX-SR606 and you can use the surround rear channel for Bi-Amping the front left and right. I was wondering if anyone...
