I'm not surprised. ;-)

Perhaps I'll try again if I move to bi-amping.


That's a more expensive experiment. If you mean just two amps effectively
in parallel, again there will be no benefit unless you need (and the
speakers can handle) the extra power.

Proper bi-amping involves a crossover before the power amps and not using
the one in the speaker. But this requires proper design to give an
improvement unless the speakers have poorly designed crossovers - unlikely
in decent makes.
