Pisbee Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Hi all, I am a whatshisname the new guy...just purchased my first pair of Khorns...vintage 1989. The electronics that I will have within my grasp very soon consist of the following pieces; 2 Carver M-1.0t power amps...bridgeable to mono...good for bottom end? A custom made 18x18 SET amp....use for mid/tweet? A PS Audio 5.0 preamp...supposed to be good with tubes and has a great phono stage? If you were forced to deal with this assortment of goodies....what would you do and how would you do it. I'm reading a lot of articles about bi- wiring and bi-amping...at this point a little over my head...so here is where I could use the help. What in your humble opinion would be the best way to utilize the items I will have at hand? Thanks in advance for what I hope to be good advice, Pisbee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipbarrett Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 You may find that the Carver's noise floor is pretty detectable on the K's. It will manifest itself as an annoying background rizz. Nothing wrong with the amp it's just that Bob never envisioned them with 100db+ efficiency speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derrickdj1 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Just run the speakers without bi-amping for a while to see what you like or think could be improved. This will also give you sometime to see what tweaks the other gear may need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
