I have the RXV2600 and run that biamped using the function you mention. I upgraded the amp from a DSPAX757 and have had it biamped from day one and it sounds very good indeed. Bass is far more controlled and weighty, and detail improved but that may be just the amp rather than the biamping. Its certainly done no harm though.
