RE: "Subterranean" Bass and SETs......

"So, in layman's terms, are you suggesting that an 8.5 watt 300B SET amp simply can't handle certain kinds of music in the digital realm?"

I'm not sure if an 8-watt 300B SET amp will have enough power to drive 92-dB efficient speakers to satisfying volumes with music containing lot of deep bass energy. (The same amp might be just fine w deep bass with >98 dB efficient speakers.)

By the way, I think Paul's suggestion of using a high-pass filter at the input is a good idea..... If the speaker doesn't have extended bass response, you won't miss much down there.
