I appreciate all of the feedback provided and it has certainly helped me with my decision making, but found one area of the amps performance overlooked. From what I understand they are designed to be biwired and provide two sets of speaker binding posts for this purpose. I was curious as to whether or not owners are utilizing this feature or are using a single run of speaker cable? Thank-you.

Hello tmaple. I have used a single run of speaker cables with jumpers and thought very well of it. As of now... I biwire. I much prefer my biwire configuration... more so than single plus jumpers, but,in all things audio, you need to try these things out for yourself. Personally, I would start with the best single run you can afford plus quality jumpers and then down the road... you could purchase another matching set for biwiring. Good luck in the quest.

The NC1200 modules have four output posts coming off the board, two are positive and two are negative.  Hypex recommends twisting the two positive and two negative wires together and connecting them from the board to the two sets of binding posts, one wire to each post.  The best view is on page 4 of this review.

With my Atsahs, I eventually connected both pair of hook-up wires to a single pair of binding posts, leaving the other pair of binding posts unconnected.  With your Veritas amps, this will be a little more difficult because Merrill indicates they solder the wires directly to the board and posts, and because they put a label on the amp and void your warranty if you open the box.  You could always ask Merrill to do this for you.

Your other option is to craft a pair of short jumpers out of high quality wire and jump the two posts together at the amp end, so both pairs of outputs feed a single pair of binding posts for use with your single wire speaker cables. The easiest method, would be to make a set of jumpers  with a pair of banana connectors at each end.   

You can also simply use only one pair of binding posts and not worry about the other pair.
