If I understand your question, I believe that it is.
I have been bi-amping for many years and have been very happy with the results. Originally my system was a 3-way system. I have always been told that a 4-way system sounded better and the theory made sense to me, so I have been intrigued by the idea for years. After hemming and hawing for several years I finally bit the bullet almost a year and half ago and added a mid-bass module to my system. I figured that the results probably weren’t going to be that noticeable and the I was probably throwing my money away, but dadgummit I was going to do it. It took me a couple of months to get it dialed in, but once I did the results wildly exceeded my expectations to the point where my final step in this audio journey will be (if I live long enough and don’t go broke in the process) to go with an active 4-way system with an amp for each speaker, because I will more that likely use mono blocks.
To be clear the active crossover is much more important than the amplifiers, imo.
Also imo, if you do go active, a balanced system becomes more important. Because with an active system you are going to add several more interconnects, and if the interconnects are single ended, each one of those interconnects has the potential to pick up noise, and the upstream interconnects will be going through a second gain stage, amplifying that noise even more before it gets added to the noise picked up by the down stream interconnects. In a balanced system the interconnects will reject that noise.
