Berlin is my preferred method of filtration and indeed, is what most of my systems incorporate.
I don't believe in using cannister filters except to use them as a vacuum after a major tank cleaning.
For me, Berlin means bare bottom with lots of QUALITY live rock, heavy protein skimming, lots of water movement, and maintaining calcium and alk with Kalk.
I much prefer using a sump as another means of adding water/air turmoil and to make the system more forgiving by virtue of having a greater volume.
