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.

I purchased a C-J Primier 11 from a good friend. I found the bass a bit lacking. I called C-J, and they recommended bi-amping with a MF-2250 for the bass with the P-11 for mids and highs. My speakers have dual binding posts which made the project possible. I purchased the 2250, ran two sets of cable to each speaker, two sets of interconnects to each amp from the pre-amp, and could not be more pleased with the results. I don't think I would go out of my way to bi-amp, but in my case I did not want to sell the Premier 11!
