    well that being the case then he has one amp powering the woofers and the other powering to two horns for midrange and treble. I think I got them confused with another model but the same principle applies except that the highs amp runs 2 drivers a midrange and tweeter horn.

    I fully comprehend what he has done. I also understand why it provides a benefit. My only problem is with our limitations of audio terms. It is somewhere between bi-wiring and bi-amping but it is not bi-amping in the truest sense of the word.

    In this case there is no limitation. The OP is bi-wiring not bi-amping. Bi-amping places the crossovers before the power stages, and there is quite frankly no way to bi-amp the Heresy. There are very few speakers that allow bi-amping, but plenty that support bi-wiring.
