Ideas for Biamp with mc611 and mc275?


Instead of buying one of the new combo Mcintosh solid-state tube amplifiers (mc451 or 901), how practical would it be to get 2 mc275s (each set to mono) to biamp speakers along with the mc611 solid state mono?

Active is the only way to go. And don’t forget to bypass the internal speaker crossovers!

How does one go about bypassing the crossover's? Is this a DIY exercise which I guess requires you to go inside the speakers and remove the filters and have the drivers directly wired to binding posts.   
 

Yes, you will need to access the drivers and binding posts and disconnect the internal crossovers from the binding posts. Or simply add another set of binding posts. 

Men 220

Not sure I understand the value of a men 220.  Unfortunately it doesn't come with Home theater capability, and it doesn't provide a graph of your room situation.  It's a box that requires you to test the room and then it comes back with a room correction for all those pressure amplitudes that may be out of sync. Basically it cost $6000 to treat your room, and then you leave it connected to your system. It does provide crossover capabilities but that's a small piece of it I guess.

It does seem woefully over priced.
