There is a Bi-amp function in my A/V Receiver.

Greetings all,
I just discovered that my Pioneer Elite Receiver has a biamp set-up feature using its own unused back channel speaker terminals. It still puts out a full range signal though, so the high and low taps on my speaks will still get the same signal. Is there any merit to doing this. Or could it be harmful to send a full range signal to the tweeter section of my Klipsch Epic CF3's. Or does the crossover still cut out any part of the signal that could be harmful.
Thanks,
shiva

My Onkyo 876 also allows this. I can also "bridge" the two channels for greater power (alas, the speaker must be 8 ohms -sorry Thiels).
Your speaker's crossover will pass only the frequencies the tweeter can handle (assuming your speaker came with the bi-wire terminals connected (some kind of metal strap or jumper wires?).
