About Complete Bi-Amp
Proposed by Marantz, the complete bi-amp connection is an advanced technique that enhances sound quality. The low and mid/high
amplifiers are separated and independent of the preamplifier, therefore interference between low and mid/high sounds is reduced
to a minimum. As a result, a wide sound environment can be reproduced.
Note:
Speaker systems connected using complete bi-amp connections must support bi-amp connections. Before connecting your
speakers, check in the instruction manual that came with the speakers or contact the manufacturer to confirm whether they
support bi-amp connection.
