I would not bi-amp using different amps because it will be hard to keep a smoothe transition from bass to highs do to differences in input sensativity, impedance, and tonality. As for bi-wiring, the way MIT's are made there is not much advantage bi-wiring because one of the things the networks are doing is filtering back EMF which is the main reason to bi-wire.
BiWiring vs. BiAmping, ?Y-splitter?
I just purchased a 3-channel Cinenova (300WPC) and I have had a 5-channel B+K 7250 (200WPC) since new.
My fronts (R+L) are ML ReQuests (BiWireable) and the center is a Logos. Rears are (junk) Bose (space problem, Scriptsi which I have in the box won't fit to the room).
Here's my question:
Would a bi-Amp configuration with the 300WPC (Cinenova) to the high pass and 200WPC (B+K) to the low pass on the ReQuests be the optimal set-up? (My cable at present is MIT terminator 4, still using the factory brass jumpers on the ML's until I decide on this)
Also, would a Y-Splitter be the best way to achieve this "optimal" setup or would the whole thing work more cleanly with 300WPC with jumpers or simply bi-wired?
My B+K Ref-20 only has single outputs so I (think) need the Y-splitters to bi-amp, right?
Is there a better setup I haven't considered?
Thanks for input,
-Ron
