Mike, curious about this subject, resurrecting the dead so to speak.

when you reference the OEM amp, is there a difference here between the Hifi AMP and the H/K amp? My reading in another thread was that the two were quite similar, so I assume no (minus the increased wattage to drive the larger # of speakers in HK), or does the OEM hifi amp not have built in cross-over function since the HIFI system doesnt run tweeters?
