    Bi Amp or Bi Wire 683´s

    I´m thinking about getting a pair of the new 6 series 683 floorstandings to use them as fronts in a h.t.
    I never had the oportunity to bi wire or bi amp speakers. Here is the question:
    I currently have a Rotel 1075 5 channel amp (120 watts p. channel) and a Denon 3808CI as pre. Can i bi amp the speakers using the Rotel for both fronts and center (5 channels, 2 for each front and 1 for center) and feed the surrounds via 3808 or just bi wire them from the Rotel ?
    Of course i´ll have to get a Y connector on both front pre outs of the Denon (Left and Right) if bi amping and feed them to the Rotel amp front and surround inputs in order to get 4 sets of wires providing the same signal. Will i gain something or i´m wasting my time ?
    Thank you guys, i´m still a novice in this audio world !

    Puny 2 wire amp cords.

    I own 2 Harman Kardon Signature amps...a 2.1 & a 1.5.

    They both have puny ungrounded power cords. The 2.1, which has the most current draw, has the smaller cord (beyond my understanding as to why).

    I know for sure I am going to install bigger cords. Should I just replace...

    B&W Fail
    by Blues
    I purchased a pair of new 683's about 2 years ago and when I got them home soon realized that one speaker was putting out more sound than the other. After some troubleshooting I came to the conclusion that one of the speakers had a midrange that was not working at all.
    Took the speaker back to...
