Am I wasting money on the theory of Bi-amping?


As a long time audiophile I'm finally able to bi-amp my setup. I'm using two identical amps in a vertical bi-amp configuration. 
 

Now me not fully understanding all of the ins/outs of internal speaker crossovers and what not. I've read quite a few people tell me that bi-amping like I'm doing whether it's vertical or horizontal bi-amping is a waste since there's really not a improvement because of how speaker manufacturers design the internal crossovers. 
 

Can anyone explain to a third grader how it's beneficial or if the naysayers are correct in the statement?

I knew 2-3 people would show up here to drop their snark-bombs on the topic of biamping, and I wasn’t disappointed.

It has been many years since I biamped, but when I did, it was a noteworthy success. It probably would have sounded even better if I’d had access to one of the excellent, transparent external crossovers that are currently available, but were not back then.

Obviously biamping isn’t possible or recommended for certain setups; but in the right setup, and with the right amps, it can take the sound way higher...

Through my modified Signet floor standers, it is easily heard, the advantages of bi wiring and, passive bi amping. What a different set of characteristics, between running the system, horizontal vs. vertical. Using many different pairs of the same exact model amplifiers, I came down to really appreciating vertical. When going back to a single amp, things started to shrink, and collapse ( through the speakers, lol ). Over the many years of owning these, these Signets have bettered, ime, so many others. At this time, they are not in use...but they are one of my few audio products, I could never let go of. 🙂☹ My best ! MrD.

  • How come they don't design biamping amps that are both tubes for top drivers and solid state for bass drivers?

Maybe I begin to do this and make a lot of money
