[QUOTE="Silas Pradetto, post: 40234, member: 34"] Re: Amp Rack wiring... Bi-Amp & Passive off the 1 amp IT4000 wired to two speakons: One speakon will be both +-1 and +-2 wired (as if you plugged into the channel 1 output on the amp, essentially straight through). Speakon 2 will have +-1 wired to channel 2. Now you can use Speakon 1 and Speakon 2 for Left and Right passive, or just Speakon 1 for biamped mono mains. My racks simply have 1 NL4 per Itech, wired straight-through off the channel 1 output. If I need to run two channels passive, I simply plug the second cable directly into the back of the amp, since channel 2 is already wired for +-1. I also have breakout boxes so I can run two channels down an NL4 and break them off to two passive speakers somewhere down the line. I also have the same thing for NL8, but I rarely use NL8 anymore. Maybe I can get some pictures up of the setup, but likely this thread will be dead by the time I have time. [/QUOTE]
