Hi DJK
Thank you for replying. I did bi-amp with a BBE Electronic crossover at 1K+/- but could never really find the right sound. Bass was always overpowering. I am not very knowledgeable in the physics of speakers and sound, so do not often understand the technical side and trouble shooting measures. The builder of my Pre-amp - Emanual Go of First Sound, encouraged me to keep the number of components to a minimum, and I have ready others saying that bi-amp of the 4430 is usually not going to bring a better result than the passives JBL put in. I am not happy with the Bel Canto alone however and do not believe I am able to come close to the dbs you are mentioning. I wonder if there is a problem with the Set 40 that I am unaware of? I could change out the pre-amp and see what happens with the Bel Canto? I bought the First Sound on pure reviews and blog writings. Never heard one.
Do you think I should return to a bi-amp? Any other thoughts?
THanks
Paul
