The two amplifiers you have are overkill - you don't
need to biamp...

What is the basis for this comment? There is no such
thing as an amp that is too big (watts per channel).

If you really believed this Powell, you'd 5 KW per
channel amps, wall-to-wall. So, do you?

Small amplifiers are more likely to damage speakers
than large ones, because small amplifiers are more
likely to clip than larger ones, at the same listening
level. I have never heard of speakers being damaged
by an overly large amplifier.


If the poster says that biamping works for him, what
leads you to believe that he is mistaken about his
empirical experience?

Just because someone thinks that putting premium gas
into their 1976 Volkswagen makes it go faster, doesn't
make it true.

Neither does listening to you, mr. No Experience.
