Integrated amp with 2 pair binding posts


I would like to power up two sets of speakers with an integrated amp. I have found only the Audio Analogue Puccini SE to have two pairs of binding posts (unswitched). Are there any others?

I believe how that works if the posts are simply for biwiring is they are wired in parallel. This would mean the amp would see half of your speakers impedences . For example if you had 2 pairs of 8 ohm speakers the amp would see one 4 ohm speaker. If you had 2 pair of 4 ohm speakers the amp would only see one two ohm speaker. The 8 ohms speakers shouldn't be a problem, but 2 sets of 4 ohm speakers would probably give your amp great difficulty. Make sure you know the wiring of the amp and the speakers impedences before you try this. If the amp has one 8 ohm output and a 4 ohm output, I wouldn't try it at all, unless you can determine that they were wired in series and not parallel.
