Biwiring
If your speakers can
be biwired or biamped,
they will have separate
input terminals for the
woofer section and the
upper range.
Make sure that
any links
between the
woofer and upper range posts are
removed from the speakers when you want to
biamp or biwire them. Consult your speaker
owner’s manual for details.
Each channel of the Sunfire Amplifier has
two pairs of outputs. One idea is to use the
voltage source to drive the woofer, and the
current source to drive the upper range. This
will offer improved performance compared to
conventional wiring.
