I most definitely agree that the OP could have "screwed up". I indicated that in an earlier post when I wrote about the possibility of "human error" being involved or a fault in his Bryston X-O. Being considerate of his ability to correctly wire up his system, I wrote it likely that X-O was at fault.
Now that I think back to my earliest experience bi-amping a Tympani (using that ARC EC-2A X-O), it's more like 40 years since I did that. I recall concluding back then, 'what's the big fuss about bi-amping'? Nearly most of the time (or perhaps all of the time) I couldn't hear 'any day and night' difference between the ordinary vs bi-amped configuration. If a were put to a 'blind' test, considering the time required to re-wire the system any difference in its sound would have been gone.
