Bi-amping


Is it discernible, or a state of mind, is there an audio benefit? If so what would be the best way to achieve this and how …

There is a lot of information on active bi-amping apogee speakers, but quite a few people don't like the sound as much as the passive crossover. 

Sounds very technical, to an amateur, my speakers each have four terminals, so the amp will be connected to one set of the terminals, is it as simple as that no setting up need?

 

Yes, just use one set of cables per speaker and a jumper between the positive pair and between the negative pair terminals. No need for a more expensive bi-wire cable. 

No need for any fancy jumpers! A few inches of copper wire will do just fine. That's what I use on my Snell Type A's.

@393gadget there is a big difference between bi-amping and going active, which is what has been discussed.. Bi-amping involves leaving the crossovers in tact and feeding each leg separately, going active involves removing the crossovers and having that function take place between the preamp and power amps.
