Bi-Amp - Audio Research Reference 75 SE & Gryphon Diablo 300

Is this totally nuts..?

Never owned a tube amp before....so I bought a low hours AR Ref 75 SE here on Audiogon recently... It hasn't arrived yet. To be honest, I'm not sure exactly how to use it... Was going to set up a new system in a small office...

But..

What if I Bi-Amp the Audio Research Amp and the Diablo..? The AR for highs and the 300 for the bass....

Talk about a schizophrenic pair of Sonus Faber Serafino's..?????!!

Warm mellow highs with dynamic tight and fast bass.... Volume may be an issue....

I'll keep you posted...

Enjoy, good luck and tell us how it works out!

I've been impressed with the AR 75SE...  Thought I'm a bit afraid of tubes amps and maintenance of tubes

@jomonhifi ... Whilst I fear your SF’s may prove to be a bit too much of a mouthful for your ARC REF75se on the other hand you now own a very lovely sounding 75 watt valve amplifier.

You have the option of rolling the stock factory 6h30 driver valves, V4 and V5, with a matched pair of pre 1978 Reflector Corp 6h30 DR...no shortage of info via Google.
