[QUOTE="AcidicDreams, post: 2023217, member: 558974"] bi amping gives you the flexibility to go active. But it requires more channels of amplification and an active xover. Flexibility is the main feature. I also imagine that pre-amplified processing is better than post amplification processing (ie passive xovers) but I dunno... I'm active and it's nice to have the flexibility to change my crossover points at will and the ability to swap tweeters and mids independantly also bi-amping has nothing to do with how many channels a particular amp has. If you are biamping you need a driver for each channel (i'd say speaker but you only need 1 for two subs etc). A 5ch amp will do for a 2way front stage and subs. Otherwise you are basically stuck with more than one amp. [/QUOTE]
