Or try a small tube amp for the horns. Let the SS power handle everything below 650Hz.

Yeah I was actually wondering about that in the future. Whether it's something that would work with the solid state...

It's how I setup the JBLs.

Key is to get the amp gain on both reasonably close.
Likely have to have a preamp with two outs also.
(Sorry this rabbit hole leads to separates. )

Either way it'll be fun to potentially play with down the road.

Yeah it's always good to have the options available.

This is why I went bi-amp to get sound with best of both worlds.
Plus the increased headroom is killer.

That’s the boss move.

You're smart.

One day I'd like to be smart like this too.

I am not holding out hope.

Aw, shucks. I’m just a geek who has been reading audio technical articles for far too long.

I've never tried mono blocks but this works pretty well as an alternative approach.
Plus tubes can be tweaked for sound preferences.

Just get a set of McIntosh MC451’s, hybrid tube/ss mono’s with perfect gain matching from the factory. Only $14k USD per side.

Oh great, now I know THESE exist.

I bet they’d look and sound great on some HRS racks too.

Oh goddammit.

Those preview windows are wicked.
Looks like something out of a Marvel movie.
