Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners can't make up my mind

I was thinking of if a good quality AV receiver would do just as good a job considering there are sometimes loads of those for sale rather cheap.

I did download the manual for that Arcam Diva and it's interesting that on page 30 of the manual it covers both by-wire and by-amping the speakers. Now I know I ordered the M3 with bi-wire posts, so it is possible. That way I would be getting effectively 2x80watts per speaker using more of what the unit has, rather than running a single channel and getting 100watts of power. Perhaps that will give me more dynamic headroom.
