Dirac Bass Control for biamped full range speaker subs?

For the dedicated LFE channel and the powered sub should reach lower frequencies.
 
Then use another sub for LFE.

Denon AVRs have separated bass management for surround and stereo.

Surround: ESLs with their subs on small
Stereo: ESLs on fullrange 2.0 (either original or actively crossed over).

I have a similar layout. My floorstanders run in small at 80 Hz (same as the surrounds) in 7.1.2 mode for homogenity reasons and fullrange only in stereo.

Nice set up! Does the Denon automatically switch for stereo or do you switch presets or modes?
 
In fact, it's a Pioneer and I have to switch manually.

But Denon offers automatic presets (or at least, they used to). Or just set the fronts to 40 Hz.

That's why I hesitate. I use DL in a PC and I can distribute signals and/or add channels at will.
For me too!
I use "EKIO" in a PC as systemwide DSP center which can distribute unlimited numbers/channels of DSP-ed signals "at will", of course including DSP-ed low-Fq channels into L&R active subwoofers.

If OP @Pablo1 would be interested, please find my latest system setup (with many diagrams and photos) in my post #931 on my project thread sharing my DSP-based multichannel multi-SP-driver multi-amplifier fully active audio setup.

These my posts would be also of your interest and reference, I assume;
- A nice smooth-jazz album for bass (low Fq) and higher Fq tonality check and tuning

- Reproduction and listening/hearing/feeling sensations to 16 Hz (organ) sound with my DSP-based multichannel multi-SP-driver multi-amplifier fully active stereo audio system having big-heavy active L&R sub-woofers
