Silly question for you guys. I have two stereo Khartago amplifiers from Klaus. I was planning to have them converted to mono's but due to a major renovation project I'm going through, right now I'm a bit strapped. To get me by can I use the stereo amps like monos and biamp? Perhapse I'm saying it wrong, can I use one stereo amp to feed the tweeters(L&R) in a 2-way speaker and the other amp to feed the bass drivers? Would there be any (dis)advantage to this?-c
"Using multiple amps typically comes into its own when you use an active crossover instead of passive." And what that means, is your amps would only be supplying current/amplification in the frequency range specified by the crossover.And then you can use different amps < G > ... like tubes on top (tweets/mids) and SS on bottom (woofers)
So there should really be no difference between "horizontal" or "vertical" biamping in this aplication correct?Thanksc.
I've always ( twice ) improved my systems by bi-amping ( passively ) . Maybe I've just got lucky .
Thanks guys. I assume I should be OK since both amps are identical. A while back, Bob at SP Tech gave me a pretty good explanation about biamping with different amps and the sonic benefits/problems and why/how they happen but we never discussed using the same amps to biamp. I suppose not many people have two identical stereo amps laying around. I just wanted to do it for the extra juice. So there should really be no difference between "horizontal" or "vertical" biamping in this application ... correct?Thanksc.
