LSI25/AMP hookup

After trying to get an amp, I finally received and hooked-up my amp to my speaks. I purchased a Sunfire Cinema 5 channel and after hooking it up I was left scratching my head. For the fronts, you have an option of voltage and current source. I currently have them on the Voltage source, but was looking for some advice as to if I should switch to current source. My yamaha amp did a pretty good job driving the 25's as it has 4ohm. The sunfire makes these things scream. Any recommendations on anything to improve sound would be appreciated.
Soon to come lsic and lsifx.

Read the Sunfire manual, it tells you which one will give you the best results for each application.
Basically you can use either one. They suggest using the Current source if you have Electrostatic, Planar Magnetic or Ribbon speaker.

I'm using a 7.1 right now, so I don't want to bi-wire. Hell this system I have now blows paint off the walls, can't wait to add other speaks. I was just curious about the 2 set-ups on the amp.
Thanks for replies....
