The bass to mid-treble crosses around 350hz which means you should have as much power on the high end as on the low end. However that doesn't mean you need 700wpc on the high end, it just means that the minimum power on the high end should be about the same as the mininum power required to drive the low end. So now all you have to decide is what the minimum power should be to drive the MG-IIIa. IMO if the amplifier is adequate to drive the speaker in "mono-amp" mode it will be sufficient for bi-amping without risking clipping.
As mentioned it is also important that the gain (sensitivity) of the amps should be the same although most active crossovers allow adjustment for gain matching of the stages.I may be an egoist but at least I don't talk about other people.
