"... The 3.x models don't have a 1:1 ratio of top and bass, it is more like 2:3. But many of us like to elevate bass slightly above the mids so being set for 1:2 (top to bass) is useful. ..."
Hi Satie,
This is from the 3.6 manual, Section 11.3:
"Since the effective crossover point for the MG3.6/R is approximately 250Hz, the power requirements for the bass midrange/treble amps are nearly the same. Therefore, use amplifiers of similar power rating. ..."
Is Magnepan and the manual wrong ???
The 20.x panels are crossed over lower, but they also go lower than the 3.X's.
I usually use @ 700 WPC (or more) top and bottom when I biamping my 3.x or 20.x.
