B&W 801 Series 80 Bi-amping


I have a pair of PSB Synchrony 1s which have bi-amping capability, which I did off my 5-channel Bryston 9B-SST amplifier. The sound was fantastic after doing that.

I put the PSBs aside as I recently inherited a pair of B&W 801 Series 80 speakers from my departed father. Out of the box they do not appear to have bi-amping capability. I came across a post where someone with the same speaker said "...maybe split at the crossover for bi-amping."

Can someone explain what this means and what's involved? Maybe point me to an article? Is this a plug-n-play activity, require additional equipment, etc.? I am curious since I had such good results bi-amping my PSBs.

Thank you.

Ok, so this looks like an internal wiring job. Thanks for confirming this is way beyond anything I’m willing to attempt. Single channel it is.
