I just got the Rti A3 and Csi A4. I have a Onkyo SR606 receiver that is capable of biampng the L/R. If I biamp via the receiver to the two Rti A3 for L/R, will the center Csi A4 be underpowered (it's not biamped)? Does biamping via the SR606 double the output to the speaker, or is each biamped channel's output halved? If so, what's the best way to set these speakers up? Should I just skip the biamping altogether?

Biamping normally doubles the power you send so you may end up with a differance in volume from the fronts vs center when playing all three. You could adjust this to equal out in the end but might be more trouble than it's worth to you.

I would skip BiAmping with a receiver. A nice set of wires wuld make more of a difference.
