What is Bi-Amp? Bi-amp is a technique used to improve sound quality where separate speaker cables are used to connect to terminals for the low-end and mid-range frequencies. This connection method can help eliminate interference in the mid- range caused by back-EMF generated by the speaker unit used for the low-end. 33
