I'm not quite sure I understand your use of some terms in your post. It seems that you have three individual wires for + on the speakers but just one ground wire that all three amps share. Is that right? 4 individual wires? Or is it two pairs of two? Either way......I find loading an amp with a part of the frequency spectrum AND one DCR/impedance level with that part of the driver/x-over's impedance peak is a lot easier on an amp. I went from single wire to bi-wire with improvement and and another level of improvement by adding bi-amp. My amps are the same brand,input impedance,gain and sensitivity. Great for passive biamp. I had to get the better (LF) amp repaired and connected just the lower powered, older amp full range. It wasn't worth listening to, to my ears after having the biamp scenario for a few years now.
I also recently lifted all my earth grounds with great results. It was like a veil was lifted.
