Bi-amp through receiver vs pre out to 2 channel for fronts

Right now I am no amping my monitor audio gold 100 front speakers using a pioneer elite receiver.

The manufacturer recommends bi amping. If I buy a parasound 2 channel amp for the fRonda and don’t bi amp, is that going to sound better?

Good question OP. Others will chime in with much better answers than mine, but I have been told when bi-amping use identical amps.

Thanks Tom that makes sense to me. Did you post something and then take it down? I read a post and then it disappeared.

Is 2-channel listening more important to you than multichannel or HT?

I would say that we mostly listen to HT movies using surround, and occasionally I will listen to 2 channel music. 

When i listen to music 2 channel I want the best sound Possible.

Very welcome, OP. No, I didn't post and remove. Also, I read somewhere that it's better to use a single good amp bi-wired than two mediocre amps bi-amped.
