User's Manual
If your speakers can be biwired or
biamped, they will have completely separate
input terminals for the woofer section and the
upper range. See the speaker diagram and
discussion on page 12.
Make sure that any links between
the woofer and upper range posts
are removed from the speakers
when you want to biamp or biwire them.
Consult your speaker owners manual for
details.
The front left and right channels each
have two pairs of outputs which can be used
to biwire your speakers. The idea is to use the
voltage source to drive the woofer, and the
current source to drive the upper range. This
will offer improved performance and still allow
you to connect five speakers for your home
theater system.
