Bi-Amping with one amp?


I understand the concept of bi-wiring. My main system is bi-wired.


I am less clear about bi-amping. It is my understanding that it means one amp drives the bass side of the speakers and one amp drives the mid/tweeter range? Is that even close to right?

Anyway, the reason I'm asking is that I temporarily have a Bryston 5 channel amp and I was wondering if its individual channels could be used to bi-amp a pair of speakers (leaving the middle channel out obviously)?

I have a Bryston 5 channel and have been itching to try this with some Vandersteen 3As. The speaker wiring is pretty clear. The source I am struggling with a visual. I assume the white would be split going to channel 1&2, the red split going to 3&4?
Thanks N80, but this is the speaker wiring. What I am referring to is the wiring from the dac or preamp.
