bi-amp/bi-wire


if you are using a mono amp for each speaker and your speakers are bi-wire capable, can you bi-amp and bi-wire at the same time?

While bi-wiring is a validly challengeable concept, bi-amping can be quite effective in some applications. However, if your amplifier is sufficiently powerful, the benefits of bi-amping may be far less noticeable. But when combined with active crossovers, multi-amping allows for a more optimal amp/transducer relationship. One of the VERY finest speaker systems was the tri-amped Waveform. Unfortunately, I waited too long to make my purchase. In the '80s I heard a very impressive quint-amped speaker by Altec Lansing which wasn't offered to the public very long. Imagine 10 monoblocks of amplification! (This wasn't actually the case. The amps were built into each massive box.)
