Bi-Amp - Audio Research Reference 75 SE & Gryphon Diablo 300


Is this totally nuts..?

Never owned a tube amp before....so I bought a low hours AR Ref 75 SE here on Audiogon recently... It hasn't arrived yet. To be honest, I'm not sure exactly how to use it... Was going to set up a new system in a small office...

But..

What if I Bi-Amp the Audio Research Amp and the Diablo..? The AR for highs and the 300 for the bass....

Talk about a schizophrenic pair of Sonus Faber Serafino's..?????!!

Warm mellow highs with dynamic tight and fast bass.... Volume may be an issue....

I'll keep you posted...

By all means bi-amping is the way to go, you will never go back to a single amp again. I personally use an active crossover and totally bypass the internal passive crossovers. A bit dangerous on drivers without passive components in case of an amplifier failure. But I've only lost one midrange and one tweeter is over 40 years. Well worth it for me.
