First Bi Amping Experience
I just puchased a pair of Legacy Signature Se speakers. Am pushing them with my Coda CSIB . I am loving them. Was reading about bi amping for a while. Started looking for a comparable amp to run off my preamp outputs. Was not having much luck finding one in that power range that was in my current budget. Then I thought of how I run my home theater rig with a Crown pro amp. Did a little research and found the Crown XLi series of amps are a Class AB design. I got the biggest one they make and just hooked it up. I know pro equipment gets a bad rap sometimes but this really sounds good.

@carlsbad2 , .....Here are a couple of tracks. I am curious to know a) What db level would be measured at your listening position if you listened to these tracks/this type of music b) How far is your listening position from the speakers? c) How sensitive are your speakers and lowest impedance dip d) Are subwoofers deployed?

yesiam_a_pirate And the experience only gets better when the current draw of the amplifiers causes all the lights in the house to dim with the beat-lol!😍 |
Cool. A thread about Legacy Audio speakers and Metal in one place. Two things very dear to my heart. I too use far more than 2-3 watts of power when I feel like unwinding after a long day’s work. @yesiam_a_pirate the best song on Rammstein’s Sehnsucht is ’Spiel mit mir’. Crank that one up to 11. Probably the best Thrash guitar tone I’ve heard post-80s/90s. |
