Yup, that's indeed an unfortunate downside. For me as stated they'd be paired with the same speakers and use the same crossover point, but at least at this time, two different amplifiers.
I'm not sure if later down the line I'll just migrate to a single amplifier for simplicity's sake. That amp would then need to be a more powerful surround amplifier, or alternatively a pre/pro and power amps. But my problem with these options is the usually bad energy efficiency (even just a pre/pro gulps nearly twice as many watts than my current all-in-one surround amp). I could just go stereo-only I guess, but I'd rather keep the surround option... besides, surround lets me keep more speakers "on display"
