jheis Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 The RC-7 has two pair of binder posts which are jumpered together as the default setup. I'm currently powering the RC-7 with a Carver TFM-45 bridged to mono (claimed 1,000 watts - talk about headroom!). However, since I would be sending the same (mono) signal to both channels of the amp, I was thinking of removing the jumper and switching the amp back to two channels (380 watts/channel - more in line with my other amps) and running speaker wires from one channel to one set of binder posts on the speaker and another speaker wire from the other channel to the other pair of binder posts. The binder posts are jumpered together now, so they are receiving the same signal. Would it make any difference if the signal to the two sets of binder posts came from separate channels of the amp (with the jumper removed)? It seems to me that both sets of binder posts will still be receiving the same signal. Any thoughts? Any potential problems? James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 Possibly by using the balance knob?????? Don't know, but the set up sounds intriguing. Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v3spitfire Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I don't think there would be any adjustments to use if each amp section of the amp is identical. I'm running identical adcom amps in a passive bi amp setup and there is no need to adjust for volume/gain. I think its only if the amps are different that this poses some issue.
