    Hi, I am looking for some advise on Bi-amping a pair of vintage JBL XPL200 (6 Ohm). 1) Firstly, is it worth considering bi-amping at all - any experinces with the JBL XPL 200 in particular? 2) I have a 2x200W/8OHM (Onkyo M-588) that I would consider for the low frequencies. Should the high...

    Bi-amp with integrated amp and receiver (which is best?)

    Hello everyone, I’ve recently acquired a set of R-series, R11’s for front, R2C for center and R3’s for surrounds. Subwoofer will come later, but for now that’s it. I have used a Yamaha A-S1100 integrated amp for stereo listening for about a few months before also going surround. As a result I...

    Has anyone ever tried bi-amping KEF 107/2 speakers with a kube 200? I know they are not a specified match, but with it being near impossible to find a 107/2 kube I'm interested in giving it a shot. Cheers and thanks for the advice.

    Gain matching for biamp

    Hi folks, I have acquired an ADS C2000 and will be looking to bi-amp some ADS L1230. I don't have a lot of knowledge on the demands I will be putting on the amplifiers. What I think is, as different program content puts demands on the amplifiers, they will respond accordingly and the output...

    Marantz 2230 Power Amp Recomendation (Bi-Amp Project)

    I'm thinking about bi-amping a pair of Heathkit AS-101 speakers. I've really enjoyed listening to them with my 2230. What I envision is using the integrated power amplifier to drive the horns and using the external power amp for the woofers. What would you recommend for a power amp? I'd like...

    Bi-amping using rear surround amp outs

    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.

    What do you do to set gain when bi or tri-amping?

    This thread is NOT a debate about bi-amping. If you ARE bi-amping please share and participate. I also would like it to NOT turn into an argument over passive and active crossovers. Of course everyone has an opinion and they are welcome to share, but please don't let that take over the topic of...

    Questions about biamping

    I recently purchased and re-foamed a set of Infinity CS 3007 speakers. They sound very good, especially in the mid and higher ranges. I have them separate from my regular system as it is in a cabinet which is very difficult to switch equipment in and out of. I am powering them with a Marantz...
