Raven Blackhawk LE... am I going to be disappointed?

@b_limo ,
 You've been here before and have been able to put together some nice systems. I'm afraid this time you'll be disappointed. Amp and speakers are not a good match.

Personally, and as someone who owns a Raven Blackhawk MK3, I don’t think it’s a good match for your speakers. It might get loud but you will miss the dynamics and bass.

I think this says it all. 

So Im able to get an average of 90dbs with 95db peaks spl at my listening seat...
I am missing a bit of dynamics / slam that I had with Belles but the Raven is slightly more open and clear.  

@b_limo 
Enjoy your amp. But what you're describing is a lack of current to fully drive the low-end and areas of low impedance.

Taps are purely for convenience and to give you the option to find one that might sound a little better. Which tap you run means nothing as far as the amp itself is concerned. There is a technical difference of course but all that matters is if one does sound better, use that one. Regardless of what the speakers are rated or the amp says.

Taps are for convenience? I think an amp designer will disagree with this. You keep forgetting about impedance and matching an amp with speakers to achieve optimal performance.

@b_limo 
Best of luck with your new amp. Many members had good intentions regarding advise for you. 

That crossover function sounds interesting, I'm going to look it up.

MC, I'm so happy you're happy. After all, this thread started by @b_limo is all about you.

Now I expect retaliation, so do your worst and start insulting me. You've already been extremely rude and classless toward me. Of course in your world no other opinions matter and can't possibly have value.

If I were to send some highlights to the Admin of your comments that violate forum decorum and basic civility to
respected members who have been here much longer than you, you'd be out of here.

Ditto, mapman.

@b_limo
I’m pleased that you found your tube amp.
Regarding subwoofer, what brand is it?

Methinks something is wrong with your subwoofer. It works flawlessly in this review...

Ok, understood.
Why not use the sub in a traditional hookup with the low-pass crossover? The mid bass driver on the mains is going to present better SQ than a subwoofer driver. Set the crossover on the sub and use it for the lowest octaves.

{On the back are an ungrounded AC socket, RCA line-level inputs and high-pass (80 Hz, 6 dB/octave) outputs, Volume control, Low-Pass crossover control (40 Hz - 120 Hz, 12 dB/octave initially, 48 dB/octave ultimately), Crossover in/out switch, Phase toggle (00 or 1800), Subsonic selection (20 Hz or 35 Hz), and a remote sensor switch.}
