Is it alright to bi-amp with 2 different B&K amps?

I currently own some Paradigm Studio 60v.2 speakers and a B&K ST-140 (105wpc) amp and still want something to drive the speakers better. I was considering the B&K 202+ which is 200wpc for the woofers and then the ST-140 for the tweeters. How do you think this will work? or should I try to get an identical amp for bi-amping?

What preamp are you using?

In my opinion, you'd be MUCH better of selling both amplifiers and the preamplifier, and then buy the very best solid-state integrated for which you can justify the cost...

What si your source? If you are a one source guy (like me), then you can forget the integrated, and track down a Boulder 102ae... Even if your source doesn't have a variable output, you can run it through a GoldPoint attenuator before the Boulder. If you're a multiple source guy, then I'd go for something like a Bryston integrated.
