I did it and the channel powering the woofers was doing all the work. To be honest I never saw what was so great about bi-wiring. An the sudden every speaker has 2 sets of binding posts.
Rotel and Bi-Amping
Does any know the answer to this question? I have the Rotel RSP-1576 surround processor and the Rotel RMB-1585 multichannel amp powering a pair of the B&W 805 D3 and the B&W 700 series HTM71 S2 center channel. A simple 3.1 system (I'm saving up for a pair of rears to buy next year to complete a 5.1 system). Anyway, does anyone know if I can bi-amp the 805s with the RSP-1576? I have looked everywhere in the manual and though it mentions bi-amplification it doesn't seem to show you how to set it up. I've emailed Rotel and haven't heard back yet.

You can bi-amp with anything. Question is: Why? Its a counter-productive waste of time and money. Oh, you can do it. I could even tell you how to do it with what you have now. But that would be a disservice to you. I'm here, we are all supposed to be here, to help achieve better sound quality. Better. Not just more. But actually better. Skip the bi. Skip the surrounds. Tube integrated. Two speakers. Distributed bass array. That is all. https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/8367 |
