RE: Why bi-amp Mags?

Steve---As Dave and Grant said, your premise is full of false assumptions, premises, and information. Nothing personal! Magnepan themselves recommended the Tympani models be bi-amped for ultimate performance. There are a number of very "clean" x-overs available at relatively modest cost, from Marchand and First Watt, to name just two. Two small amps can certainly outperform one large one, and for less money. The boutique parts for a speaker-level x/o are very expensive, and don't provide the improvement a well-implemented line-level x/o will. Paul Heath's advice is very old (I remember him from the 1970's), and very outdated.
