Bi Amping with a AVR
Comments

My D*(K is bigger than yours , now WHAT!! Is this where we are at? Why don't both of you just call my equipment junk trash and be done with it. Beat your chest and tell everyone on the forum how superior both of you are with your awesome weight power supplies. While you guys are running around here with measuring sticks, I'll be enjoying my junk trash **** equipment, completey wrong and inferior Bi amped crap British speakers.
Glad we all can get along.
You are the one that brought up weight in an earlier post. -

The AVR weighs in at a hefty 49.6 LBS. -
Bottom line once again. IT IS NOT BI-AMPING!!!Political Correctness'.........defined
"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

Forgive me for my potential ignorance on this subject. I always thought bi-amping meant running separate amps/separate power supplies. With active crossovers. And I am not sure how the Integra in question works that out. But it this setup more akin to bi-wiring than bi-amping?--Gary--
Onkyo Integra M504, Bottlehead Foreplay III, Denon SACD, Thiel CS2.3, NHT VT-2, VT-3 and Evolution T6, Infinity RSIIIa, SDA1C and a few dozen other speakers around the house I change in and out. -

This is what I always thought too, two amps for each speaker, two for upper, two for lower. Or two amps that are true dual chassis.
But if you just have one great amp or two great mono amps, with high current, that gives you great headroom, why bother?
That has always seemed to be the consensus around the audio world..
I don’t see how what you’re doing is bi-amping..
It’s been a very long time that we have seemed to talk about this subject, and to be honest Dan, with your background in audio, and knowledge you have shared throughout the years, I find it odd that this subject is started coming from you..
Not throwing any shade or bone in the fight here, just find it odd is all..
I honestly have never dug deep into what it takes to truly bi-amp, only shared what I always thought it meant to truly do it..

Easy, Integra says if you want to bi amp your speakers, our AVR can do it. This is how you do it. These are not my words, these are Intera / Onkyo. I pretty well respected brand in our industry.Forgive me for my potential ignorance on this subject. I always thought bi-amping meant running separate amps/separate power supplies.

I never saw the need to do this ever to justify your point, when you have plenty of power to get the job done, there is no point right? I feel the same way. I just was fooling around and wanted to try this out. No one actually reads my words just jumps on Oh this isn't bi amping, your not doing it right, my power supply weighs more than your entire AVR and all that other stupid crap.
Yes I have been in this business for decades, doesn't mean I can't try this out or anyone else for that matter, it's called a hobby and it's supposed to be fun. Some of the people on this forum doesn't make it fun, it actually makes me want to ignore them as it's like they have nothing better to do than to pick on anything you do that they don't agree with. So be it.
Technically speaking it states NONWHERE that you need separate power supples different chassis, you need a speaker with 2 sets of binding posts, 2 outputs from 2 amp channels and your bi amping. There is multiple ways to bi amp, not just external crossovers, 4 differnet amps. Yes that is the best way to do it but it't not the only way.
Challenge that call one of the most respected amp companies in the world Bryston. They state that you can bi amp with one of their multi channel amps and they will even help you select that amp based off your speakers and needs. So to sit here and say there is only 1 way is complete false.
Guess what? Sonically and dynamically I made a small gain, I don't see anyone else who has done it talk about it.
