Does anybody have any experience of vertical bi-amping with the Pass Aleph 5? I'm wondering if its worth a try, assuming I can get hold of another Aleph 5 of course!
That really depends on the spkrs rather than the amp. I'm sure the Aleph won't mind. But passive biamping is a bit of overkill -- no? Why not use a passive line level xover instead? Far better results there...
Speakers are Sonus Faber Grand Piano floorstanders. They are rated up to 200 watts, so I don't think there would be a problem there. Was hoping to get some extra benefits of using the 2 amps, ratehr than having to worry about tuning crossovers to start with?
Well, you'd be doubling the power (that's +3db /side). But how do you propose to do that -- unless you disconnect the woofer from the internal xover & introduce an outboard low pass. Asaik, they don't have double binding posts (i.e. "biwire"). Cheers
