With the new amp (Txsr701) i no longer have b chnl. I do have Zone 2 but no sperate amp. What i am trying (wanting) to do is hook up my Monitor 7's on my main system to see how they sound vs the HK AVR20 (65wts vs 100wts) in 2 chnl. My
? is its a pain in the a@@ to get behind the HT and hook up single run of wire vs the signal bi-wires that are hooked up now so i can hook up the M 7's. could i just use one of the sets of terms on the bi-wire and hook up to the 7's and not have any problems? Is it only getting 1/2 the signal from the AVR?
Any input is welcome and always appreciated. Please no Armor All sugg ;)

no problem as long as your extra set of connections don't touch.

same thought here, I have done this trying out bookshelfs.. its the same thing, just 2 sets of wire.. spread apart the banana's so they don't touch is all

Thanks. I'll give it a shot. Been dying to see what these M 7's can do with more power running em.

pretty damn good when you stand away from them towards the back of the room...or better yet in the kitchen and the back yard with the winders open

I wish these 38's had atleast 8's , the 6 1/2" woof can go loud, but has its limits with this amp..
