Bi-Wiring. The Klipsch front towers are capable of being bi-amped, and the Pioneer receiver has a bi-amp output setting. Using analog it does. —Michael Holly A Yes, there can be. With the Bi-Wiring method, each speaker is connected via two sections of speaker wire from the receiver/power amp (ie: Front A & B terminals) to the treble and bass inputs of the each speaker. In the bi-wire speaker connection the bridges are removed and separate sets of speaker wire are run from the amplifier to each section as shown below. for example, on my denon 4800, i can choose to listen to a dedicated set of rears for music(a), and another set of rears for theater(. Both Bi-Wiring and Bi-Amping try to improve sound quality by isolating these components from one another. Got a tech question for Sound & Vision? Joined Mar 26, 2008 Messages 13,640. Many upscale loudspeakers now come with this configuration, including a removable shorting bar that connects the two "+" and the two "-" terminals for use with normal, single pair, speaker wire. One wire handles the tweeter and the other the woofer for each speaker. Now bridging the A and B lines might work, (I,ve done that), but it comes with no money back guarantee. A/B speaker outputs are usually just run through an internal speaker selector in the amplifier, no added channels. If your amp actually is the type that doubles its output with A+B and the crossover in the speakers combines the inputs somewhere you run the risk of damaging the amp and or speakers. Is there a sonic benefit to bi-amping speakers? No warranty implicated or implied. Feb 5, 2009 #6 C. criccio Fully Equipped. Sets of bi-wire speaker cables can be purchased and used to the same effect. Ideally, one would run two identical lengths (and type and gauge) of two-conductor wire to each speaker. Email us at AskSandV@gmail.com Q I recently purchased a 5.1 Klipsch Reference Premiere speaker system and a Pioneer Elite VSX-90 receiver. These emitters deliver four uncorrelated audio channels, which provide uniform, unobtrusive sound masking. Here are the steps to connect speakers in the bi-wire mode: Ensure that your system is powered OFF. All Qt emitters come in the adjustable format. If your amp doubles the power it would actually be a passive bi-amp using A+B. 9.1-channel playback + front speakers of second unit This system enables switching playback between front speakers A and B as desired. Bi-wiring requires speakers with two pairs of binding posts for speaker wire. Remove the bi-wire bridges from each speaker (this separates the LPF & HPF crossovers). Bi-wiring is a way of connecting a speaker … This means I could use speaker A and B to bi-amp but when I use digital sound the sound does not get directed to speaker A and B at the same time. might sound silly, but does listening to two seperate sets of speakers, one set on "speaker a" and the other on "speaker b", at the same time ruin the amp or overwork it more? Bi-wiring a speaker can be a relatively inexpensive way to improve overall sound quality. This process should not be confused with bi-wiring, which uses a single amplification output source, but connects separately to the low frequency driver and to the midrange/tweeter. Qt emitters are wide dispersion direct field speakers with 1.25” (3.17 cm) drivers and are smaller than a coffee mug. The bi-amp is not likely to get you anything, as your amp is basically paralled on the output side, as Frosty pointed out. When making bi-amp connections, be sure to remove the short-circuiting plate or wire between the speaker’s woofer and tweeter terminals. To properly bi-amp a system, the amplifiers’ power must be balanced and the speakers must be well within their frequency and power limits. Speakers are usually a combination of two specific speakers: high frequency speakers (or tweeters) and low frequency (or bass) speakers. This provides no benefit, unless you are using a multichannel amp or receiver and are using extra channels to bi-amp, where then it can make a difference, …
