Oh, I should have specified, the rear surround can be set to run in bi-amp mode, but I get that it isn't going to do anything for me.
So, I've got the amp. Are you saying I shouldn't bother using it, or that it's actually worse to use it? I mean, if it could serve a useful purpose I'd like to feel like I didn't waste my money. The way things are set up right now the speakers are jumpered and are running off the amp only. The amp is connected via the pre-outs on the receiver. Would it be better to run the front speakers off the receiver. I figured at the very least I've got a second power source for the front speakers and the surrounds/center could run off the receiver.
