noob with some questions epi/outlaw/nad/itc2

[daveleidich]

ok here it is...

I live in an old stone church 16' tray ceiling 35'x45' floor. I have two bridged nad 2100 and outlaw 990 and 2x vintage epi mt'22 and 2x david richardson's custom itc2's(not much on the net but retailed around $10k the are amazing) and a martin logan sub.

1. should i unbridge my amp and run a single amp to each set of speakers so the outlaw will have 4 channels to process instead of 2? i'd really like to use the auto setup w/ the mic that came w/ the amp. none of the speakers have any info on them wattage etc.

2. what is the optimum position of each speaker?

3. should i omit the epi's and just drive the itc's full power?

4. i listen to floyd, beck, etc.

5 any other insight would be great. -thanks in advance

I would definitely recommend doing just that. It will give you a lot more flexibility if you really want to run 2 pair of speakers.

Are you trying to get a pseudo-surround effect or are you just wanting to run 2 stereo pair (like you are now) but with more flexibility?

not too interested in surround. really just quality music. thanks

If purely for 2 channel, I would just use 1 pair of speakers then to avoid interactions and cancellations between the pairs.
