Biamping vs. Biwiring Pass Labs


Looking at the specs the X600 looks pretty much as powerful as a X350 but in mono. Would there be any advantage of using 2 X350s instead of 2 X600s and using one channel to drive the mid and highs, and the other to drive the bass (Nautilus 801s)? So you're using one per speaker but bi-amping...

....?

I've done this with several speakers Maggie 3.6r, Revel Studio and Salon. The benefits to biamping are many. Biamping with two X350s would be better than 1 pair of X600. The ultimate would be 4 X600s in a vertical biamped configuration. When I did this with ML #436 it sounded incredible and the bass. . . look out. Things you never heard just pop out. By biamping you're going to a whole new level.
To hook up your amps, you'll need a pair of high quality Y-adaptors. Don't fall for the you'll need two separate pair of interconnects routine as my understanding it that inside your preamp the line outs are not wired separetely but split to the connector.
With this configuration your 891s out to sing!
