Actually, this is not necessary. You can run precisely the same signal to both amps for each channel. There are crossovers in the speakers themselves designed to do the job. And don't worry that this will cause your amps to have to drive more of the audio band than you desire, thus robbing them of power--it won't. The nature of a driver/crossover arrangement is that the electrical resistance outside of the target frequencies is very high, thus no power is drawn from the amp for any but the frequencies the driver/crossover arrangement is intended to produce. As proof that you can send both the highs and the lows the same signal consider that when connecting bi-ampable speakers to a single amp you simply connect the binding posts. Both the "high" and the "low" sections of the speaker receive the same signal and the crossovers sort out the rest. -- azinck3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ azinck3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3967 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28381 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
