female needs expert advice

bough a new pair of mirage om 5 loud speakers.Iam biamping them with 2 classe 70 power amps. these speakers have 2 250wattamps built into them for the bass.I have 2 pairs of tara labs speakers cables about 8 years old tara quatums reference.what do you think would cable for them. I want something that is fast being in boogie factor @transparent don,t we all.One more question ,Iwas horizontally biamping these untill iwas talking to the maker of these speaker who told me to vertically biamp.To do this he said to take the two + and two- speaker spads of the rt speaker and put them on the rt channel of one amp and use the rt channel of amp input to rt channel of preamp do the same with left speaker and other amp . i feel that using one channel of eash amp is a waste any other ideas is welcome I don,t want to buy new amps these to me sound good but i just hate the waste the reason for doing it this way the top two things on speaker are for the mids and highs the other 2 are just to send a signal to the built in power amps fun hey? so help me guys thanks.

I agree, when I saw the thread title I came here with an idea of someone that would be asking some very basic, newbie-type questions, then I began reading the post - and saw that it was anything but. so Tarbishaw, female or not, I don't see you as helpless at all and you'll do fine. Hope the advice that you have been given helps you try some new combinations.
best regards,
aj

I,am not a helpless female only a audionut looking for advice sorry I offended anyone. I,am from cape breton , nova scotia high end here is technics.I bought all my equipment on the advice of men so why change now and it doesn,t seem like a girls thing.All the audio forums seems to be all males telling there stories, believe me wish I wasn,t into this, It is an addiction I think more expensive than smoking drinking,the only thing it comes close to is greed the always waiting more , Been there mirage m3s, om6 now om5s so thinking why not amps and cables only a thought.A Man asked what sound am,I looking for, I think it was man, better, a little improvement.I read where people upgrade 3000 dollar speaker cable, 10,ooo speakers this stuff makes my stuff look like dog pooh so thinking why not a little improvement.A doctor where i work lent me a pair of kimber 8tc Hes a ENT doctor I think he wanted me as a patient,talk about ear bleed they weren,t what I,am looking for .oh well I,ll stay were I,am or bite the bullet and get a more powerful amp and try some speaker cables from the cable company or audio advisor.Again sorry if I offended anyone and thanks for all respones It did help and i guess this lady better stay out of the mens room .

Hi there--"f n e a"-- I doubt anyone was offended. Hey, in life we play the cards we were dealt.--(People get ugly when they find "me" cheating, so I've cut back on that behavior.)

You're right about this compulsive obsessive hobby.-- And, If you can get more advice announcing your gender--go for it.--Signed: " p i n j "--pretending I'm not jealous.
