Most crossovers have 2 pairs of terminals, one pair for the high frequency (HF) and the other pair for the low frequency (LF). Both the positive (red) terminals are shorted out with a bi-amp link, as are the corresponding ground (black) terminals.

Separating the feeds to the treble and bass drivers at the amplifier terminals rather than the loudspeaker assists the separation of the sound reproduced by the speaker. The transparency of the sound is much improved with better definition to the music Back to Top See similar questions...

Dubbed': Most of the people that still ask this question are probably really trying to make sure we are not carrying some Hong Kong dubbed bootleg, which of course, we don't. :-) 'Dubbed' simply mean that the original Japanese language dialog has been redone in English language dialog by professional voice actors. Keep in mind though, that not all dubs are created equal. See similar questions...

With our speakers because of the way we design them it should be enough for you to simply connect one good quality twin wire cable to your amplifier. However if your speakers are a long way from your amplifier of you are a perfectionist then you may consider using two twin wire cables and in extreme cases where you wish to make the sound as perfect as possible you would use two power amplifiers as well.

First you must check with your authorized PSB dealer to ascertain whether your particular speakers are bi-wirable. If so, it can be accomplished by using one speaker cable for the woofers, and the other cable for the midrange and tweeters. At the other end, both cables connect to the same amplifier output terminals. The thinking being that using separate cables for low and high frequencies would somehow reduce interference between the two and improve sound quality. See similar questions...

Bi-amping is the next stage up from bi-wiring and again necessitates removal of the bi-amp links from the crossover terminals. However, rather than having the common point at the amplifier’s terminals, the HF and LF terminals are fed by two dedicated amplifiers, one driving the HF and the other driving the LF. By allowing the tweeters and woofers to be driven separately, the ‘load’ seen by the amplifier is reduced and improved sound quality results. See similar questions...

We introduced the bi-wire terminal arrangement on the original HL Compact back in 1988, and it has been a feature of all Harbeth HL and domestic monitor speakers ever since. The original thinking was promoted by Martin Colloms in Hi-Fi News but as we belatedly discovered once we'd started shipping the HL Compact to Japan, Toshiba Corporation already had a patent on bi-wiring, and they set about enforcing it through their Intellectual Property lawyers.

Bi-amping a pair of speakers basically entails adding a power amplifier to your system so that your integrated amplifier drives the tweeter units whilst the power amplifier drives the bass units. This ensures that the speakers are driven more efficiently which in turn will produce a greatly improved sound. Bi-wiring on the other hand simply means bypassing the crossover unit on the speaker so that the speaker cable goes directly into the bass and tweeter units. See similar questions...

Low voltage electrics is a lot safer than electrics at higher voltages but it suffers for volt drop quite badly. With the average length of a boat on inland waterways and the complexity of caravan wiring increasing, the wiring runs are getting longer. Furthermore, owners are specifying more power hungry equipment than used to be the case. Both of these effects mean that careful choice of your wire is vital. See similar questions...

The Speakers Directory is intended to be a database that enables AALL members to share information among each other about good speakers they have heard. We trust that members entering a speaker's name vouch that they are good speakers. See more information in the Disclaimer page of the Speakers Directory. Raquel Ortiz (Speakers Directory Administrator and AALLNET Content Coordinator) and Chris Siwa (AALL Web Administrator) are the contact persons for the database. See similar questions...

Our policy is to have all of our translations done by native speakers, translators who have grown up in the language into which they translate. Equally important is the term in-country. An in-country translator is one who lives and works in a country where the language into which he or she translates is the official language. See similar questions...

Plumbing is installed into interior stud partition walls the same as it is in conventional homes. The wiring is generally run from your sub-floor and drilled into the log that will hold your outlet plate and along door and window key-ways and then drilled into the log that holds your switch plate.

Inside wiring" means slightly different things to different DSL service providers. At ConnectSouth, it includes three separate cabling components. The first piece of cabling we install is used to bring your point of demarc into your office through a special wall jack where you want your DSL modems installed. From that special wall jack, our technician will supply the cabling to connect it to your DSL modem. See similar questions...

Marantz preamps with this connection configuration are designed to have you connect the speaker outputs on an amplifier to the speaker inputs on the preamp. These are all benefits you don't get with preamps that don't handle switching the speakers (in other words, 99% of them.) The down side of this design is that if you do choose to route the speaker signals through the preamp, you're putting them through (at a minimum) one set of switches and two sets of speaker terminals, typically clamps.
