Why do crossovers do more harm than good???


Think I got down why unless it's an expensive parametric EQ that basic tone controls or none at all are better than graphic EQ but was thinking that if bi-amping latterally is supposed to be better than not bi-amping why don't more manufacturers make active crossovers and let's incorporate them into their pre-amps?As opposed to letting both amps handle full frequency spectrum?I have a set of bi-amp/biwire Gallos and was thinking of adding a sub.Why would a unit like a Bryston or other manufaturer improve the sonics more signal path and wirring nonwithstanding?If I did want to explore this option any other good manfacturers to consider?

Didn't notice there was a simmilar thread posted just recently.Guess my differentiation with others is that my Gallo Ref's have a capacitor hooked between bi-wire posts as opposed to crossovers per say.Then I have leads hooked to lower "baseballs" but again according to manaual no crossover is present or needed.Maybe a call to Gallo is in order.
