Horizontal vs Vertical biamping


Hi all. I am looking for some feedback. I am horizontally biamping 2 Rogue ST 100 amps. I am using DS 2 preamp, Aurender N10, Yggy LIM Dac, Legacy Signature SE speakers. It sounds really good. I have tried vertical biamping with this setup thinking it would sound even better. I have read that it would but in reality it does not sound as good. A bit thin and unresolving I would say. Anyone care to weigh in on why this would be? Thanks in advance.

Spenav you got that right. Overwhelming the support for active crossover. I may need to find an active crossover guru opening up those speakers is not something I am currently comfortable with. Whew. 

I got you. Take your time. Read up about it. It is actually simpler than it sounds. In your case, you can get good results using a two-way xover and leave the mid and high frequency drivers connected to the passive crossover. Look into Marchant crossover. I have had excellent results with them in the past. Sorry I opened this can of worms 😀. 

Spenav No worries and thank you for your input. I will see what I can learn about active xover systems. 

I tried vertical bi-amping once and smashed the valves on the bottom power amp.😂
