TP-Yes,the Internal XO's are being Pulled in order to use an Active Outboard XO.
SEAN-I might just do as you say.I am reluctant to sell the B&K.I might try what your Bros. did.Looking at A-Gons Used list I saw a Krell for around $1400 and McCormicks for below $1K.I also have a B&K AV-2500 amp that I will use for the CC and Surround channel's.I am not in for the HT playback as much as the 2-channel so timbre matching might well be served using all B&K amps.
Zaikesman-Really not trying to bandaid,trying to get the best performance I can from the speaker's.I have seen alot of people try using Tubes for the Topend with mixed results,that is why I asked the question.Either way I go it should be intresting.
The Gain Levels will be controlled through the Active XO.
==========================================
On a further note.I found some references to Hafler's and McCormicks being used with my speaker's.I might opt for an ST-120 on the Top or use the ST-202 on the top .Another way to go is Monarchy's for the Mids and a McCormick for the Bottom and ST-202 for the Top.
The speaker's are very power hungry and having amps to drive seperate driver's is the best way to get performance from them.
Thanks for the help everybody!
