[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8923859, member: 689267"] I'm going to suggest that you don't bi-wire/bi-amp at all. There are times when this is a benefit, say when you're going active. I would bridge whichever 4-channel amp and run the crossovers using the normal input; you won't hear the difference in a car. The reason Focal does this is for staggered multi-amp configurations where you're actually using two different amplifiers with different output power, say 150x2 for the midbass and 75x2 for the mid/tweeter setup. You would benefit more from running the 4-channel amp in bridged mode and feeding the two sides a straight 300x2 instead; let the crossover distribute the power. Seriously, this will provide you with a much better outcome. [ATTACH type="full"]71784[/ATTACH] Otherwise, you're just leaving power on the table. [/QUOTE]
