A bi-amping question


Right now I am using a Bryston 4B-ST for left/right channels in home theater. For center channel I am using an unmentionable monoblock. What I want to do is take my Acurus A125x5 amp that I have just lying around and bi-amp the center channel, using 2 of the 125wpc amps. Will this create the appropriate sound pressure level to match my Bryston?--or am I thinking about this the wrong way. Yes, eventually I will upgrade to all Bryston amps, but for now, I NEED to get the center channel level up. I do not like the result by boosting the level using the processor. The center channel is taking about 70% of the sound for movies and boosting it is just making it worse. For reference, I'm using B&W N804s for left/right, HTM-1 for center. These speakers matched for size, efficiency, frequency response and driver compliment. The processor (Proceed AVP) has only one center channel output, so I will have to find an IC splitter. Thanks.

Don't have the signal splitter or the extra speaker cable yet. Am in the process of buying interim parts now, but wanted to get the input from those who know before I spend some bank on some quality cable and splitter ;-) Also, what I really wanted to know was if two 125watt amps can equal one 250 watt amp.
