To bi-amp or not, that is the question

The caveat so many people fail to recognize or act on is you MUST use an active crossover to have full control over the desired crossover points and gain/volume to control the gain or balance difference among amplifiers. Using active crossovers also prevents having overlap in the various ranges.

Gary, good to hear from you. How do you like like the 602's? Also big congrats to Alkizz on the 462! I hope things work out. I would greatly enjoy hearing Gary's system with those 602's in a tri-amped system. I owned Genesis II's but only had them bi-amped.
