Horizontal Bi-Amping
With this configuration, you may use different stereo amplifiers for the low- and high-frequency sections of the
loudspeaker (e.g., tube amplifiers for high frequency and solid state for low frequency). Each channel of one
amplifier drives the low-frequency section of each loudspeaker and each channel of the other amplifier drives the
high-frequency section, as shown in Figure 11.
This method requires that both amplifiers have the same gain; otherwise an imbalance will be heard between the
low- and high-frequency reproduction from the loudspeaker. If in doubt, please consult your TAD dealer.
