Bi Amp JM Lab 936's


I just bought a pair of 936's. I've got 2 Parasound HCA 1200II's. I wasnt totaly thrilled to hear them with the Parasound amps bridged in mono. Would it be better to run only one amp in stereo? Or would it be wise to get a Y adaptor and run two amps in stereo, one to the top end and one to the bottom end?

Hello i owned the same model 936...remember this speaker is efficient.I paired this with 2 mc-225 (tube) at mono ( 50 watts )and result are excellent..sometimes driven by a single mc-2100 (s/s)..same ..very musical.
I do bi-amping by using a single mc-225 on stereo to drive the hf/mf and mc-2100 (s/s) to drive the lower part and the result very musical and detailed of course paired with Cary SLP-98 tube pre-amp.
Buck44,single amp will do the job and can drive your 936 at no ease.
Recommendation:
Single amp.......5 *****
bi-amp...........5 *****+ headroom & dynamic range.
Enjoy your music.
