Sounds like a poor protection circuit design on the amps. You could also use
a DA for buffering, which would likely be more stable than several crossovers
and cost less. It's amazing where they cut corners on some products,
including stuff sold as pro gear.

Either your equipment doesn't use normal electronic design or you're doing
something that should give less headroom, not more.
