Why in the worlld would you want a 250 watt amp to power

Perhaps the question should have been=Does a speakers
power handling rating apply only when single *or biwired.
You seem confused. Biwiring is not the same as biamping.
He doesn't seem confused, GOIA. The internal crossover would be used
whether single or biwired. The power-handling rating would not change.
The answer to his not-at-all confusing question would be "yes".
is there a danger of overloading the HF section when bi amping?
Yes, and there is a danger of overloading the HF section whether you are
biamping, biwiring or whatever.
But a far greater danger exists if bypassing the passive crossover
designed for that speaker and driving them directly.
A proper set of specifications gives the power rating for the speaker in all
of its available modes.
Agreed.
Failing that, you use common sense.
Failing that, I'd ask the manufacturer for their specs for whatever
application was not covered. I've seen a lot of blown speakers as a
result of "common sense".
