bi amp imrpoving?

Would the use of a single amplifier with megawatt output, used with medium-efficiency speakers, negate any possible additional benefit of biamping?

Psag: Does the megawatt amp allow you to take more control over the system and optimize to your preference?

In almost every case, yes.

Ngjockey: As I understand it(?), the benefit of biamping is to lower distortion, by providing enough power to each driver, regardless of its impedance. I believe that the goal of a company like Spectron is to build an amp with enough power to do that, obviating the need for biamping.

However, I do wonder if active biamping brings some other benefit. Irvrobinson, what do you think?

Irvrobinson: The reason I ask is because some amplifier designers (Behold for one) are starting to include active crossovers in their amplifiers.
