Bi amping with Monoblocks

Unread post by Hemmo1969 »

Good morning gents,

Help me out here.... if I was to bi amp my speakers with NVA monoblocks two for tweeter two for mid / bass driver. Would A40 for tweeters and A70 for mid/bass driver work? or should I essentially stay with the same power across the range?

Speakers ProAc D15 two way

TIA

Either way. Four A80 best music, then it goes down but even a A20 will do tweeters. And don't forget the other bi-amp possibility of 2 x A60, one stereo amp per speaker bi-amping. It is all down to how much room you have for amps and how much spare dosh. More money more music (blimey have I invented a new NVA catch line :oops: ).

Possibly... but hasn't that been the maxim of hi-fi manufacturers/merchants for the last thirty or forty years?
