Atrium7 with Sub10 Wiring Help

pauldel

Hello. I am the new owner of 4 Atrium7s and 1 Atrium Sub10. I plan to install these at the 4 corners of my yard. 2 at the 'front' of the yard along with the sub10 on and under an elevated deck near the house to enhance bass, and 2 at the 'rear' of the yard with woods behind and nothing to radiate or reflect the sound towards the front of the yard/house. All driven by a nice, but old, NAD 7240PE amp with good clean power to A & B speaker outputs with switchable 4 or 8 ohm output. What is the best way to wire these 5 speakers on this amp with the most bass and full range sound from each speaker? I have seen conflicting info about whether or not the pass-through wiring is effective through the sub10 with satellites. Ideally, I don't want a satellite effect, but full range from all 4 speakers and added bass from the sub. But, if I had to settle for sub/satellite on the front pair wired through the sub to the 7s (on A), and full range from the rear (on , what are the power implications for A & B, if any. Would I want to use 4 or 8 ohm impedance? 12 gauge wiring will be used throughout for 100ft runs to rear speakers and 20ft runs to front/sub. Thanks.
