    Bi Amping with Yamaha RX-V781 (TSR 7810)

    Newbee question:
    I have a 5.2 system, and I see that I can 'bi amp' to my front towers with the unused surround channels. It looks like they want me to run the speaker cables from the unused channels of the receiver to my towers, but unless I just piggy back the connections, I don't have a way to hook it up. The towers are conventional 3 ways, with just a P and N connection. Is it OK to run the outputs of the unused surround channels to my speakers that way? I hope so, because those towers are the least efficient speakers in the mix, and it would be nice to boost the power to them. I already configured the receiver to operate in the bi amp mode, just hesitant to connect the cables. What should I do?

    No, you will most likely blow something up. Your speakers are not capable of being bi-amp. Aside from modifying the crossovers, not much to do.

      Bi-amping from the same amp/ AVR is a total waste of time and effort.

        RSX-1067 and bi-amping front speakers
        by Hap35
        I am, reluctantly, going to have to sell my Rotel RSP-1066/RMB-1075 combo and need to downsize, all due to space considerations in a new house. I like the Rotel sound and it works well with my speakers, NHTs. I am looking hard at the RSX-1067 receiver, as space-wise it will fit in the space available...

        Bi-amping RB-1080 AND RMB-1075?
        by macwrede
        Hi all...

        I have a RB-1080 bi-wired to a pair of B&W 803S and a RMB-1075 driving the center and rears (which btw, are nowhere near the quality of the B&Ws). Can I tap into the 2 unused channels on the 1075 to bi-amp the 803S? Is this even feasible considering the difference...

        Thoughts on bi-amping ?
        by Herbonbay
        For the last few weeks I've been researching amps to give my recently purchased B&W 804's more juice. I'm using a Pioneer Elite 56Txi that allows me to bi-amp the 804's by using the 2 front channels and the 2 back channels. IMO the difference between 2 and 4 channels is substantial. I've been reading...

        RMB 1095 Unused Channels Question
        by AB11
        I have an RMB 1095 and I am only using 3 of the 5 channels.
        Should I use shorting plugs on the unused inputs?
        Thanks

        Bi-amping Paradigm with Rotel
        by jk@home
        Hey Folks

        I'm using an RSX-1055 receiver (75 watts x 5) to power a Paradigm Studio system that I am in the process of building, for HT and casual music listening only.

        Started off with 20v3s, then added a 570 center. This last spring I traded the 20s for 60s, and plan...
