Bi-Wire - Ohm and RMS Rating Split


Using my JBL E90's for front mains. These are dual 8" with 1mid and 1tweet. Im thinking about Bi-Wire these E90's. Any ideas on how the 110wpc/440peak @ 8Ohms (per speaker) is split when you Bi-Wire?? Also wondering how the Ohms gets divided up....? They have a max. amp power of 250RMS..I have a Rotel 6channel Amp that is at 100RMS per channel and I want to use 4 of the channels as a pre amp to the bi-wire on the E90's and Then eventually bi-wire the Centerchannel which is the EC35 on my SYSTEM1- thats to be determined later.

Thanks Kr4 - No, Im not trying to get more power. I have bi-wired the speakers with my AVR235 which runs about 70wpc in stereo mode. I really liked the seperation and I wanted to boost it up a little by running 2 channels to each E90 which would be 200RMS with the Rotel. Thats why I was wondering what happend to the wpc/Ohms...I dont want to distroy my main baby's ...any thoughts!
I went ahead and bi-wired with 14GA from the AVR to the speaker terminals.
awsome sound could not be happier..
did not use the Rotel at this time...
