2 and 3 Channel Amps configuration
In a home theater setting If you had a two channel and a three channel would you set up the amps ... 2ch= L,R & 3ch = C, LR ,RR or 2ch = L,C,R
& 3 ch = LR, RR ?. Please explain why

I would want a better timbre match across the front end, so a 3 channel for LCR. But it would also depend on the quality of the amps used.

If they're basically the same amp, then it shouldn't matter.

Thanks Face,
Do you think there would be no benefit for audio only if the R&L were seperate from the 5.1 channels?

Better separation that would maybe show on paper but not be picked up by our ears.
In your case, I would do whatever works out best as far as cable management.

I would use the 2250 for the front l and r. According to the spec on Krell's web site, the transformer is rated for 2500 VA for both amps. if this is correct, I would guess that the actual output power is higher on the 2250 than 3250.
