Also presume there is a mono switch but power can vary widley though rule of thumb is in a standard vertical bi-amp situiation and power you double biy it could be three times power.Laterally you might get better performance if you ahve bi-wire posts but don't expert loudness of vertical flip of a switch to mono.Horizontally with one amp going to tweeters and one to mide/bass driver your output oF 150% of original apir.If set was not underpowered but you got second amp this is the way to do it.Not totally sure )and maybe follow can say_ but with two of dsame amps horizontally you wouldn't need Marchand or Bryston HQ x-over.Choosing to do it is based on others telling you if it sounds beter,need for power,and x-over if needed.This is why bang for the buck most folks will go for mmopre power with vertical set up but some of the most magical set up are when one amp only has to move it's tweeter and one to the bass/mid driver in two way design.
Plinius SA102, single versus mono?
Hi,
I use Plinius SA102 amp partnered by AA Capitole MKII, SE and B&W N802. As most of us, I try to get utmost of the system, still thinking of 802's to "sing" to their full potential.
Has anybody experienced running Plinius SA102 with stereo and then 2 x SA102 in mono configuration? I just wonder how much the extra spare power enables more pronounced articulation with mids and high's. Is it worth of the effort, and how compared to Plinius SA 250 MKIV?
