That's very good information, thanks again Satie! The reason I'm interested on SET is that I have heard a few *very good* setups with them, but actually none of them was tri-amped, so SET was driving either full range or both highs & mids. And because of this, they did not have any problems with low impedances either.
Maybe I was just distracted by the great mids they had, so I did not even notice any problems with the highs ;=)
But actually your proposal of using SET only for mids would make things much easier for me. Since I'm going to use line of NEO-8's for mids, they could easily be driven by some lower power (=lower price) SET. And then using some good A-class SS for highs would solve the problem with low impedance. BUT; could such a setup cause some problems with the continuity of the sound, due the bit different character?
