WIRING AND BIAMPLIFICATION
SINGLE WIRE CONFIGURATION
Single-wiring uses one amplifier channel to power each loudspeaker.
A single wire carries the high frequency (HF) and low frequency (LF)
information. Jumpers connect the HF and LF sections of the speaker’s
crossover network at the loud speaker.
BI-WIRE CONFIGURATION
Bi-wiring also uses one amplifier channel to power each loudspeaker.
However separate wires carry the high frequency and low frequency
information. This wiring method is considered superior to single-wiring
because it reduces the likelihood of the two sections of the band
interacting and creating audible distortion. Since the bi-wire has twice
as much conductor as the single-wire the common or shared
resistance of the cable is reduced.
BI-AMPLIFICATION
Bi-amplification uses two stereo amps to power a single pair of
loudspeakers. One amplifier is used for each speaker and one channel
in each amplifier is used for each of the high and low frequencies of
each speaker. Bi-amplification extends the benefits of bi-wiring into
the amplifier. Not only does it reduce interaction in the cable but in the
amplifier channels as well.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
To remove dust from the cabinet of your amplifier, use a feather
duster or a lint-free soft cloth. To remove dirt and fingerprints, we
recommend a non-abrasive glass cleaner and a soft cloth. Do not use
alcohol or any other flammable liquid. Dampen the cloth with the
cleaner first and then lightly clean the surface of the amplifier with the
cloth. Do not use excessive amounts of cleaner that might drip off the
cloth and into the amplifier.
