    Hello experts. I am currently bi-amping my Klipsch Heresey iv speakers with a C55, MC275 for the highs and mids, and a MC152 for the woofers. I have the C55 set to bi-amp in split mode with crossover frequencies set at 3000hz low pass and “bypass” for high pass. Currently the speakers are...

    Rare Magnificent Magnavox 289H?

    For several years I've owned a ca. 1957 Magnavox model 289H, and am finally getting around to electronically restoring it. The model number appears on a small sticker about the size of a pair of small postage stamps, on an interior cabinet wall. It has the bi-amp with the eight 6V6s and...

    ADS M12 Bi-Amp Conversion Success

    I've posted previously about converting my M12's to be bi-ampable. It seems that this is one of the few larger ADS towers that didn't have that option from the factory. My motivation for doing this is to be able to use a Dynaco ST-70 for the mids and highs and a 200 WPC Parasound SS amp for...

    Klipsch RC25 Center Channel...LOW OUTPUT?

    Hi folks, couldn’t find this question answered on here. So I just got a Denon AVR-2808CI (7.1) receiver and I have a 5.1 setup with some Infinity IL 40’s as the fronts. This is also my music listening system, and I really like these speakers. The il40’s have bi-amp capability, and the denon has...

    So soon I am going to have a new receiver from Sony (STR-DH770) and it has the capability to hook up speakers in the bi-amp mode. I have some bookshelf speakers that have two wires coming out the back. One for the lows, (two woofers) and one for the horn. Now the amp manual says to hook the...

    How many here use passive bi-amping & what did you gain

    I'm a big fan of passive bi-amping and use it on two different sets of three way speakers. In both cases, I dedicate an amp for the woofers and another amp for the mids + tweeters. My goal in both cases was to get control over speaker voicing. Years ago it was common for manufactures to market...
