can i use 2 amps to power one speaker?
i have monoblocks and want to amp the rest of my speakers, 7.2.4
i can get 2 a-500's and bi-amp 2ch to my center(rc-64iii) or i would have to get custom 9ch amp with one module being high power and the remaining ch stereo modules(also cost more)
my center is rated 200rms and surrounds(8 includimg atmos) 50rms

You can use 2 amps. Just Y adapt from the processor output and make sure to remove the bridge from the speaker binding posts.

Power increase via biamp is not quite what you HOPE for. Amps will STILL swing the voltage needed as though they were full range amps.
Going to a Line Level crossover will give you a power increase since amps will no longer be required to swing voltage outside the passband.
Speakers don't have watts, so I'm not concerned with 'speaker power', but am more concerned with the crossover frequencies involved.
The RC64III is very high sensitivity so I see no problem with anything over maybe 100 watts per .
