Biwiring and impedance

Hold on, folks. It doesn't matter at all what the impedances of the hf and lf parts are and it doesn't matter whether you use single-biwires or double biwires or how many terminals there are on your amp.

If you connect everything to one amp, regardless of the wiring, the impedance load is the same as with single wiring.

Sheesh!

Thanks Kal. That's what I was looking for.

Not neccessarily guys. Buffered amps and throughput (Krell) amps can see a super low impedance from the high freq posts. Depends on the crossover. Do a little homework on the speakers you want to try this with if you are not under warranty.

Really? What crossover configuration would have the HF present as a low impedance that is not seen when both HF/LF sections are connected?

I am not trying to be wise-guy but would like to know if such is possible.

Kal, It is quite common in first order crossovers, both the woof and tweet work far outside their sweet spot with such a gentle slope. Tweeters particularly drop impedance in this situation. Amplifier say POOF! If the amp can handle very low impedance, tweeter say POOF! Been there- done that.
