how do they sound when bi-amped or bi-wired?

They do sound more and more clear mids but I would definetly go for another pair and make a 7 speaker system instead of using a 5 speakers with the fronts biamped.

These speakers have been discontinued and are imported. I would NOT buy even at the discounted $. I am a long time Klipsch fan and have Klipsch all over the house including my 6-1 home theater. Better off with RB 61's. I have 2 sets and they are great!!

I have these wired directly to my Kenwood head unit. They sound fine, but I think an amp would make them even better, and I plan on adding one in the spring.

There are smaller Klipshe, or Vandersteins that might do. Celstians would do. But I'd try the 700's with it. I don't know how bi-amp would work, but the amp being less expensive than speakers, you might want to buy the next size up, and run the bass drivers with that and the unit in question running the mid/highs, if the 700s will bi-amp. I'm running Celestian 3's and it's more than enough, not too much.

I have an output amplifier (DJ Stuff) that I use anyway so I didn't notice anything flat. Try boosting you Bass setting in yours computers EQ

This is if you want to bi-amp the speakers. They are bridged so you can connect them like most speakers. AWESOME speakers BTW!!!

Looks to me like they're passive speakers, so yeah, although the speakers jacks look like they go to the matching amp so you'll have to splice the wires from the cords that came with the speakers.

They have a passive crossover, as well as amp for passive speakers...I have 6 active speakers and 4 of these subwoofers, and they sound amazing.

Dual coil and It bangs hard I have two in a attrend box with some poly fill sheets lining it. I only have my bass on 3 of 10 and you can hear me blocks away. Chicagos feeling my bass.

They will sound good with a aftermarket stereo. But an amp will give it more power and neater sound.

Recently got mine too. Remember if they are on then so is the amp. You'll only feel a little warmth on the Left speaker, where the amp is housed.

I bi-amped my Paradigm Monitor 11's since I can't use the 2 extra surround speakers in my room setup anyways so I figured I might as well put those 2 amp channels to use. I sense a bit more clarity and effortless sound and I'm happy! If you try it don't forget to set speaker type to bi-amp in setup.

I have measured their impedence as around 4 1/2 ohms over much of their frequency range; this is likely to rise around the crossover point when you add a capacitor (eg 3.3 microfarad) to keep low frequencies out. Whether they sound any good will depend on whether they are similar to what you are replacing, they are very efficient and might end up sounding very bright, with unpredictable integration with whatever woofers you are using. Good luck! Richard

You can bi-amp speakers you cannot,I don't believe, bi-amp outputs for double power,if that is what you mean!!Suggest check with Emotiva to be sure.

Yes, you can bi-amp them. They come with bridges to connect the two sets of posts, which can be removed for bi-wiring if you want.

Biamping is sending power separately to the Woofers and Tweeters for instance.....I wouldn't really recommend this on this type of system as oppossed to a very high end system(where you could actually TRI-AMP IT with the proper High End Speakers) but that is a WHOLE other ballgame in Audio and very expensive.....If you add a major powerful Power Amp to great speakers that's all you should need(without Bi-Amping to different parts of the same speaker)...but it will be moot if your speakers aren't good enough or can't handle it....

It doesn't sound boxy at all. IMO it sounds solid across the spectrum. It is a center channel in my application. I have B&W; left right front and rear. In an 11 speaker configuration. This makes great highs and mids.

They might sound different but not necessarily better. An amp might make them sound more open. It all varies between equipment. I can't live without my EQ settings, that would be one benefit of a amp.
