I remember a PMC guy at a show once advising against bi-amping, "just go for quality and power" was the gist of his advice. Probably very speaker dependent dependant this one, and you need two "master" amps, a slave won't work for bi-amping. So unlikely I know, but has anyone given it a try?
I think bi-amping with Devialets would only be worthwhile if you bypassed the passive crossovers in the speakers. So you would use the high/low-pass filters in the Devialets as active crossovers. This might be very interesting.
Otherwise I see no advantage in bi-amping.
