Bi-Amped Aktiv vs. Tri-amped Aktiv?


I have all Linn gear (except for a Rotel phono stage): Classik, LP-12 and Ninkas biwired. I'm considering going Aktiv, having heard a demo of what Aktiv does for the little Katans. The problem is Katans only have two drivers; Ninkas have three. I can't afford tri-amped aktiv. Will going bi-amped aktiv by getting a 5-channel Linn 5125 cause as dramatic an inprovement in my Ninkas as it did for the Katans? I was blown away by what it did for the Katans.

Where is the bigger jump, passive bi-wired to bi-amped aktiv or biamped aktiv to tri-amped aktiv?

Thanks Kenny, that is the answer I was hoping for! I can afford a 5125; I can't afford three 2250's (or even LK 140's). This seems like the best way to get a big improvement at the least cost. And thank's for the warning about burning them in - it will be stressful enough waiting - worse if you didn't know it would improve.

Thanks!
