Richard's PL Beastie Rework

Are you sure.... Put it in the red for a few min.... Make sure it's loud enough !!!
 
Yeah I am better now. I considered getting a CAT scan, but the dizzy spells stopped. I was afraid I'd had another mini stroke.
 
Depending on WHAT 901's ya have, you should be able to let the 700 stretch it's legs....
 
The Series I's were the juice hogs, had a pair myself...
 
I put the needle in the red but I never seemed to go past 1/2. This is a powerful amplifier. I have never had equipment like this. I really like it. I will have lots of ???

Far as a powered sub.. hmmmm.... so many ways to answer that. One way is to use a "Y" cable that splits the preamp output

Out in my garage, I have an old Technics reciever and a box that allows me to turn on and off four sets of speakers. I have another of those boxes, is it safe to use it(in lieu of a Y cable) on an amp this powerful?

I'd not recommend it. Assuming your sub has it's own amp built in (it does, right.. with RCA inputs??), best to stick with the diagram above. Or shop around for a good preamp (remember.. that Onkyo was just to test the PL when you first had it, before we upgraded ya).. one that has more than one set of preamp outputs. Old PL pres have 'em (I'll leave it up to Lee to recommend which one). Adcom preamps do too - just give the one you're interested in a "google" and you should be able to see a pic of the back panel.
 
Yep, all good advice. Let me see if I got this right. You have a second set of speaks you want to run?

Thought it was a powered sub + the 901's? If a 2nd pair hmmm... If both on the 700, then problem would be the Bose EQ while matched for the 901's wouldn't be for the other pair.. unless those too are 901's, but I don't think you want that.
