help on bi-wiring

seymo (Mostly Harmless) posted this on Monday, 4th March 2002, 17:41

I have now got a yamaha RXV620rds receiver and a pair of wharfedale diamond 8.1 speakers. As this amp can run two sets of front speakers at the same time ( main A+B ), Is it possible to bi-wire one set of front speakers by running the A side to one speaker, and the side B to the other speaker? The Wharfedales have a impendance of 6 ohm
can anyone help?

Nearly right - the best way to do it (which is what I do with the `620`s predecessor the DSPA5 and Wharfey 8.3s) is to attach the HF (high frequency) L and R speaker connections for each speaker to set A on the back of the amp, and the LF (Low Frequency) L & R speaker connections for each speaker to set B on the back of the amp.

Ensure you remove the metal link on the speaker, and depress the button on the front of the amp so that speaker sets A & B both play.

Awesome !

To be honest, they`ve always been wired up that way !

Have to say though that these Wharfeys are pretty darned nifty bits of kit - they take a bit of running in before they get going (about 40 hours), but once run in they have superb bass presentation - your music collection will be worth listening to all over again, I can assure you !

Massive improvement on boxy little JPW Monitors wired up the old-fashioned way, anyway :-)
