Looking for views on bi-amping


I have a pair of CJ prem 12 mono driving my large Proacs. While not really maxed out, I was wondering if there were any benefits to biamping the speakers other than pure power.

Does anyone have any views on what would be good match. I thought about picking up a CJ prem 11 (a two channel version of the 12's) and using it to run the highs.

I am running Naim and Linn sources through a CJ pre-amp for the front end.

Have heard some active and passive bi and tri amp setups, sorry to say that chances of failure are high due to the many reasons posted above (gain mismatches mostly).

The only route I would consider is horizontal bi-amp using the same amps, otherwise I feel we are swimming against the flow of a basic principle here "Less Is More".
