Just wondering if this was possible. I haven't hooked them up yet, but I have a pair of TSi300's to be used as the front channel of a 5.1 surround with a DENON AVR 591 as the source. I believe that the 300's have provisions for bi-amping, but is it possible if I hooked up this system to run at 5.1 on the 'a' side for movies and such, and then be able to switch over to the 'b' side to just play cd's on the 300's? Can this be done without having to switch wiring? Not sure if I explained this correctly, but look forward to the feedback. Thanks.

    No that's for biwiring or biamping only, not for switching sources, hooked up seperatly without bridges will give you bass and mids on one set of posts and highs on the other

    As said, that is not possible. And even if it "were", why would you want to do that? Just because you're hooked in for 5.1 does not mean you cannot play your system in Stereo DIRECT or two channel just using the 300s!

    The B channel is for running another set of speakers with any source you have into the Denon.
