How do you bi-amp with tubes and solid state

I am thinking of picking up a BAT tube amp to run my Aerial 10t's along with my Krell KSA-300s! My preamp is a Krell KRC-3! My question is if there is any way to adjust the gain on the amps or if this is even necessary when bi-amping? I just worry about one amp being louder than the other and making the sound unmatched! My only experience with this was in car audio! I would just use an electronic crossover to handle it! Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you, Troy

Would it be better just to find something that could control the gain? I imagine the crossover networks in my Aerials to be of higher quality than the electronic ones? Does it make that big of a difference splitting the crossover points to feeds the amps?

Thanks,
Troy

VTL Huh....Never heard one before! How do they compare to Audio Research and BAT? The prices on them second hand look reasonable and they seem to have high power! I really want to try tubes on my high end! The lows on my system are outstanding!
