I was running a single AHB2 in stereo mode with a pair of Revel 126be bookshelf speakers and a pair of Fathom 12 inch subs in a medium size room. When I ran ARC (STR preamp) it would set the speaker levels at +12 (max). I repeated this several times. I recently purchased a second AHB2 and running them in bridged mode the ARC program set the speakers at 0 and +2. The superficial explanation is more power from the amps but I'm sure there's more to it than that. In any case I'm delighted with the amps and the Benchmark cables are beautifully built.If you use the ah2b to run a pair of revel 226be towers, would any of you suggest using a pair of the amps and running bridges mono? Or maybe that would be overkill. I’m just wondering how much more volume I could expect to get using a pair instead of one.
Thanks
