With the crossover at 200hz and 1700hz, a BIAMP between lows and mid-tweet would only need maybe 40% below and 60% above the 200hz point.
You Could make very good use of a PAIR of stereo amps, one per speaker. 200x2@8 would not be a bad place to start. And better use of power would be had by going 'active' and making or buying a line-level crossover which would yield maybe 2db+ in this situation.
And using MODERN DSP stuff, it wouldn't be impossible to TRIamp. Perhaps start with duplicating the speakers crossover, just to get on the page. Modify later to hearts-content.
Too much is never enough
Follow Ups:
the high-pass is first-order; you can do a passive line-level HP simply with a single low-value capacitor at the input to the amp. However, the amp must have a reasonably high input impedance. The low-pass DOES need to be active or DSP.

I will try to hear them and find out if what he would give me in trade.
