I run two sets of Klipsches with separate power amps. LaScalas with a pair of Heresys. I have a Conrad Johnson pre amp with two pre amp outs. One pair outputs to a Threshold 400a (110wpc) which drives the rear Heresys and the other preamp out goes to a pair of Dynaco MK-III's (65wpc). I have found that the imaging is negatively affected when operating the two units together. However, there is an increase in the bass response. I use it mainly for watching VHS and DVD's. Still a purist, I haven't made the move to surround sound yet.
