    Sound & Vision - The Bristol Show

    I saw some photos on Facebook about this event with B&W 800D3's and the new DB subwoofers. I saw four RB-1590's in the photo. Is it possible to modify these amps to run in full mono? Or were there rear speakers they were driving that were not in the photos? Perhaps Patrick could chime in? Here are the photos they posted.

    Hi BWLover,

    I'm guessing that Andy Kerr (the person presenting in the third photo) is bi-amping 800D3s with the two RB-1590s.

      Thanks for your reply. Do you know what the other two RB-1590's are for? There must be rear channels hey?

                They bi-amped the fronts and centre, and used another 1590 for the rear channels
