Tri-amp with stereo SS on bottom / tube monos top



I've been considering a set-up of driving my Tyler Acoustic taylo ref monitors with a solid state amp for the lows and a pair of tube monoblocks for the midrange/highs.

Do the amps have to be exactly matching in output? If not, is there a curve of diminishing return where they should be close? Does it matter at all?

Yes This can make for a plesent listening system, I use 2 mac 60's 2 mc-75's and 4 dyna MK-3 along with an old Dyna 400 on the bottom, gains are easy since I use equalizers rather than cross-overs I can also play my Dolby 5.1 system for movies, I use a 100 watt tube amp I constructed for the center channel.
Cross-over's are ok but I'm not wild about the slope of most passive can be done with auto type bullet hi-and low pass in-lines this is for the buget minded.
