SET on JBL Everests - Mouse breeding an elephant?


I have a set of DD67000s and I’ve been running them on a pair of bridged Mac 275 amps.  I’ve been quite happy with the results even though most advise a lot more juice.  Lately, I’ve been hearing interesting things about the Elekit TU 8600s and I’m curious how that would work on the Everests.  Most of my listening is to acoustic guitar, jazz ensembles, piano (classical and bill evans jazz), and intimate vocals at fairly low volume with the remainder being orchestral/symphonic, early rock, big band, Texas swing at higher volumes.  Room is 22 X 40 with vaulted ceiling.  I’m thinking of adding the SET for the smaller scale stuff and leaving the 275s as they are for the rest.  Thoughts?

I agree, my JBL 4435 monitors sound better active then passive.
@doodle6,
Make sure you remove the jumpers on the back of the crossover, before you bi-amp the Everest. Also, look at the McIntosh Mc 2301's tube mono blocks, they will best the Mc 452 amp. IMO

The 9 volt batteries keep a constant charge on capacitors in the crossover. Similar to a class A amp were the transistors are always on.
