    bi-wire help

    I just purchased a parasound 2125 2 channel amp..What is the best way to bi-wire? This amp has speaker A and speaker B connections. Should I just use speaker A connections or hook the tweeters to A terminals and bass to B terminals? Or one speaker to A terminals and one speaker to B terminals?
    My speakers are B&W 804s..


    Thanks for the help. Robin

    For amps without speaker selector, like the Halos, I would connect to A and B.

    However, since that 2125 amp has speaker selectors, you really should connect everything to the A connection. (Ideally you got a bi-wire cable that has just one set of spades/bananas on the amplifier end).

        Thanks for the quick response, just hooked up my new parasound 2125 amp bi-wired to my B&W 703s and the sound is very nice.I can't wait to get my 804s in next week.

        Can you bi-amp using speaker a and speaker b hook ups ?

          No. You need two 2125s for biamping a pair of speakers. You would only use the A terminals.

            NILES Speaker Selector ? Have seen/used them ?
            by Tapesh
            Is there anybody who has used or seen demo of these NILES Speaker Selectors.

            I was just wondering this can be a good investment for selecting a good speaker when you want to compare them side by side with same input and equipment.

            Thanks Tapesh

            RB 1080 A/B speaker terminal switch?
            by bleeding ears
            Hi guys, just a quick question on how the RB1080 (with 8 speaker terminals on back, not 4 ) switches from "A" speakers to "B" speakers?

            Is there a switch on the front or back panel?

            Rotel's website does not show any switches on the unit for A/B speakers,...
