Is it best to use a 5-channel amp for biamping??


My next amp will be a sunfire (not the signature series). Please advice if buying the 5-channel cinema grand and use its channels in a bi-amp configuration will give me better results as opposed to just getting the two channel stereo amp?

Thanks in advance

Planckscale: It is typically cheaper in the long run to plan ahead / think about future moves than to just buy what you can get by with now. If you take that approach, i can pretty much guarantee that you'll end up upgrading later and spending more money doing so. Then again, many of the folks selling the "standard" Sunfire's and Cinema Grand's at reasonable prices are moving up to the Signature versions. Following that path isn't a bad thing ( i did it myself ), but if you've got the money now or can swing the difference in a short period of time, i would hold off and just make one big jump rather than two more costly jumps. Other than that, you can't have "too much" power. That is, unless you're "wreckless" with the volume control : ) Sean

That's what I call "boiling it down" advice!!!!!!
I've been sticking to a lesser amp tweaking the whole system while building the "critical mass" and take the leap!
