Could I bi-wire MC 402 to a set of speakers?


Could I bi-wire one MC 402 to a set of speakers with Low pass and high pass connectors? Such as the 4 ohm tap to the high pass and 8 ohm to the low pass. Is that possible and if so, would it produce better sound? Any input is greatly appreciated.

thanks theo. what ohms would you recommend for low/mid/high..2/4/8 ohms..it is advisable to use different ohms from the same amplifier (Mcintosh MC402) to the different passes in the speaker (xrt28)?? Thanks again.
Docash777,
I had the 402 and used two cable sets from the 8.ohm-tap to connect them to my Shahinian Diapason speaker, which has one binding post on the subwoofer, and another one on the module for the middle and high frequencies. Both cables, and loads, add up to 6 ohm, which is fine
It is IN NO CASE advisable to use two different taps, however, as you will lose half the power, and stress the amp, as I remember being told by Chuck Hinton from McIntosh years back.

thanks for your response and expertise in this matter. i guess i will bi-wire the 4 ohm tap to connect the low and mid.
