Proper bi-amping involves a crossover before the power amps and not

Widely successfully employed with subwoofers, though.


Indeed. The benefits are even more so with low frequencies due to the
greater power required. A well designed passive crossover at say 50 hz
made to handle 150 watts would be pretty costly.
