I biamp with 4 150 watt monoblocks.When I first decided to go that way I didn't really know what to expect with respect to volume levels etc. What I found was that volume levels remain about the same. However, the sound is much better. There seems to be more of it and less strain on peaks. My speakers are about 90db sensitive and an easy load to drive. Bi amping makes them sound better all round but the volume levels remain the same. You may need more power all round. I like solid state for power amps matched with a hybrid preamp and phono stage but you may like something else.
biamping question
hi,
sorry, i accidently posted this under speakers. I have a pair of vtl mb 125 mono blocks at 125 per channel, i have ascendo c7 speakers which are power hungry at 87 db. i want to biamp, but am at a loss as to which amp to use with the vtls. Should i get another pair of vtl 125? or should i go ssolid state with more power for the bottom end and use the vtls for the mids and highs. Any input would be much appreciated
thanks
