Wilson Maxx 2 Biamping?

This speakers have only a pair of binding posts in the back of the lower box. But also they have a pair of binding post marked as middle and another pair marked as highs in the back of the top box. This two additional pairs can be used to bi or triamping this speakers? I mean: the middle-high crossover are located on the top box or are in the low box of the speakers?

FWIW-I inquired with the same question a while back and was told NO by Wilson.
It had something to do with the crossover in their speakers and even though there are multiple binding posts the speaker will not operate properly when trying to bi-amp.
They recommended bridging two of the same amplifiers to mono as the alternative.

Thanks Apachef1, my friend have this speakers and a Audio Research VT100 and a MF kw750, and also serious problems in the bass response of the speakers in his room. For that we wanted to try to biamp (VT100 in highs and kw750 in bass) and apply some digital parametric equalization only to the bass using a digital filter. I'm sure that this amping setup will outperform the VT100 alone as he have now (little booming also).
Instead of the answer of Wilson, do you try to biamp?

I passed on buying the speaker. Give it a try, It sounded like the speaker will not play the entire frequency range if bi-amped
You could email Wilson and get a more defined answer, they respond quickly.
