Hello!

This is my first post here and I need a help.

I have Denon AVR 3310 and Monitor audio silver RX6 2 1/2 way floor standing speakers (1" tweeter, 6" bass/mid driver and 6" bass driver) with Monitor audio sub-woofer RXW12"-D class ... without other speakers and have no intention (read:money) to install them (one day a center one, maybe)

RX6 are connected with one wire and sub is connected to sub output with one wire ... all is working fine but .... I think this can give more ... with different/better setup ... can I gain something with bi-wiring and bi-amp and how ... how to connect those cables to AVR 3310 ... how I can get the most, if ... because my system is not 7.1 nor 6.1 neither 5.1 or maybe I am wrong ...

I was reading a lot (unfortunately still do not understood all) about bi-wiring and bi-amp connection of speakers in my situation .... hope someone here can explain all in a plain language .... or with some sketches if necessary

Best regards and thanks for replay and help.

Relax.

"Bi-amping" as executed in an AVR is NOT real bi-amping where you take the full range signal, process it through an active crossover with precision signal alignment capabilities and then send the signal to an amplifier.

And "bi-wiring"....well the less said the better. A topic defined almost entirely by emotional testimonials as simple circuit analysis fails to support the alleged benefits.

But then, the vast majority of profit is made on aftermarket accessories, (and many who are not comfortable with addressing fundamental issues feel safe to change out cables and a piece here or there and expect 'improvements', so it is not surprising to see the market emphasis here - as their primary job is sales.

But just wait for it, as I am confident there will follow legions with amazing emotional testimonials.
