TAD Reference One - Horizontal Bi-Amping Setup

15
TAD-R1TX
English
Horizontal Bi-Amping
With this configuration, you may use different stereo amplifiers for the low- and high-frequency sections of the loudspeaker (e.g., tube
amplifiers for high frequency and solid state for low frequency). Each channel of one amplifier drives the low-frequency section of each
loudspeaker and each channel of the other amplifier drives the high-frequency section, as shown in Figure 11.
This method requires that both amplifiers have the same gain; otherwise an imbalance will be heard between the low- and high-frequency
reproduction from the loudspeaker. If in doubt, please consult your TAD dealer.
