Anyone tried active biamping with Martin Logans?

I've just acquired a pair of Aerius i electrostats and a two Adcom power amps and was planning to passively biamp them. But, I have been reading about the advantages of active biamplification and have seen some Behringer active crossovers cheap on eBay. Wondering if this is worth further investigation. Any comments would be appreciated.

Adcom and ML. Sounds like a recipe for some serious bright sound. I've had ML in the past, Adcom is not the amp that comes to mind for them....however, perhaps the Behringer can produce a miracle.

Good luck!

I haven't got 'em set up yet, so I don't know if this'll be a bright combo. I'll find out in a day or two and report back. I'll start with passive biamping, but I can't help but wonder if active biamping would yield even faster, tighter bass.

I agree with Beemer.....Adcom + ML= Not good. All you can do is try it and see though. I would seriously consider getting one good tube amp (or at least auditioning something) to see how that goes too.
