The speaker/amplification wars continue

May not get a  fair shake here with the RG SET
AS the 5 incher FR is 91db  and the 4 incher arrives nextw eek is 91db
Richard recommends speakers 94+ db sens. 
So we have low sens = under 90db
Mid level sens = 90-93db
High sens = 94db+++
I have mid level sens. 91,91,91, nothing wiyj high sens,,so testing  will be faulty. 
hummm, lets see, anyone have a  high sens driver they can send out, I'll pay ship both ways. 
Wait,,,Richard mentioned he has some old Magnovox horns in his stash.
maybe there are mid tweets which will give me at least a  better idea of what a SET is capable of.
I disconnected the W18's just now, so i can get a  good idea of what the Defy does with a  single FR mid sens driver,,,  vs the RG211.
For high sens FR you gotta pay the piper, those drivers are expensive. But now i see, higher sens = easier load on amp, = amp more effective/efficient. 
I get that now. 
If the RG211 SET can perform with passing colors ona  mid sens speaker, then I'll know its time to let  my beloved Defy go. 

I just  gota  message on a coment I made on his YT video of the Cayin 845,,says in his note ~~Hey Paul, I  shipped the cayin 845 back, only listened to vocals with it,,, I am now listening to a  KT150 with complex music~~~ What does this tell you??
The RG 211 will be tested as by fire. 
I know what the Defy can do, can a SET  beat it? 
We will know soon enough. 

is this the online version of staring into the mirror and talking to yourself for an hour?

good grief

This is a very strange and weird post by the OP.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~Unusual~~ I agree
~~But strange/weird~~~, maybe you are not interested in this subject, and that I can understand.
So taking the 2 above comments , not as ~snides~ but as honest, fair and open free speech ..I took it easy and thought about my next move.
Obviously there are no fish biting on this topic and so I am just going to have to fish in other waters..
Lets see the Inet perhaps have some fish, = a  good answer.
So I type in 
~~Weaknesses of SET amplification~~~
and what do I catch?
None other than 
~Steve Hoffmans's page~
Oh its a big one.
And note 
~THis topic has been CLOSED~
Seems this topic is highly sensitive (pun intended) material, hush=hush.
Let me state at the get-go
I only employa  few jazz cds for the excellent record quality as testing cds, to ck the performance ofa  amp, speakers, tweak, upgrade.
Other than  for these pirposes, I  listen exclusively to classical, chamber yes, but also full orchestra.
Note the opening question.
My answer has been found. 
SET amplification will  have less than satisfactory results, when the music calls upon, power and muscle.
Jadis Defy7 will remain in place. 
paired with a  97b full range and  dual 87db midwoofers.
Had wolfie62 held back his free, fair open speech, I might not ever have typed this Q to the Inet's vast info recorded log.
I have not read through this topic on Steve Hoffman's page, the OP  gave me all I needed to know.
I will most likely let Richard know  that I have lost interest in his 211 SET.
Ohh I just peeked to the 2nd post, 
Futher affirming what I feared might be the result of the SET experiment.

Thanks Wolfie62 for inspiring me to make further research. You've been a big help
