I agree that cancellation and phase variations are at work. 2 outputs are generally used when bi-amping or running 2 rooms... I have stacked 2 pairs (years ago) and achieved ok results but ultimately what you are trying is an '80's idea. Using a 2nd pair of back speakers (with much reduced volume) to produce 'ambience' and 'space'. Running both pairs at matching volume is very hard to pull off.
2 Pre-Outs?
I have a high end preamplifier (which has 2 balanced pre outputs) connected to two stereo amplifiers, both J. Rowlands 112's. Each amp is connected two a pair of 8 Ohms loudspeakers with fairly equal efficiency ratings.
When I play a source (digital or analog) both loudspeakers lose their inherent sonic virtues, particularly gain. When I play each one individually(by turning off one or the other amp.), each pair performs flawlessly.
Should I increase the gain on the preamp?
