cm10 S2 and Rotel RX-1050 when bi-wired on A and B speakers Rotel overheats easily
Probably because speaker b is a parallel amp channel to speaker a. In order to actually BiAmp you would need to add an external 2ch amp.Also a lack of ventilation and air flow will create a large amount of heat 
High efficiency monitors for SET amp in small room - budget 2.5k
I used a Tang Band 8" full range in a custom built cabinet being powered from a Schiit Aegir (20wpc) and really enjoy it. I, too, have a small listening room (11.5 x 14) so I'm in the same boat as you. I looked long and hard at the Omega speakers,...

wig,Yeah I did weds night. Straight out of the box the midrange and high frequency is more apparent than the 6.5s which covers the bass a little more. I would imagine once I can get some hours on them they'll sweeten up and settle down

I've had the Classic 6.5 for a about 3 years and last year I put them in their recommended 2.8 MKII boxes which made a huge performance increase. I just received my Super 8s to replace the 6.5 and will install them tonight so I can't report on the...

Please vote
I vote #1 - There's a lot of variables that could change that but just by their sound I've always liked the B&W sound.  
Has anyone heard Audi Nirvana's new Classic 8+ ALNICO speakers?
I have the Classic 6 and love them. I built the boxes according to their specs and it worked perfectly.
