Two Amplifiers Connected in Parallel?


Provided my preamp (receiver) can power two identical 2CH amplifiers, what are the advantages (if any) of connecting the two in parallel, one amp driving tweeters, the other driving mid/bass drivers?

Amplifier (Rega Maia) has a L/R link output in addition to L/R input. Preamp (Pioneer Elite VSX-32 receiver) has single L and R outputs. Speakers are Spendor 7/1.

Can the Rega Maia amps be bridged into mono? For example my Mark Levinson 27.5 was designed to be bridged and it says so in the manual ,it does require a special cable to complete the switch and of course a second ML 27.5 to be used to drive the other channel.A while back I looked for a used 9/10 or better condition ML 27.5 in Audiogon to buy,I wasn't satisfied with the condition of the ones I found,except one that was truly mint but priced very high and the seller was difficult so I passed,and I do regret it now.
All the other Rogue gear I used in my bi-amping set-up I own and have at home so I could play around.I am hoping to perhaps buy an external crossover such as the Bryston 10b (usually goes for $1000) and get same cabling for all connections and give it a second try.
Best regards

George - Thanks again. Not sure that the Maia can be bridged to mono, but I will try to find out. The manual does not mention bridging as an option, but I will contact Rega directly to be sure.
