Having lived, breathed, and owned things Fulton since I met him in 1978, I think you are on an impossible mission.

You can NOT use SETs with such inefficient speakers. I built an all DHT tube amp on EIGHT chassis, from 1983 to 1985, with Mr. Fulton's intense "all-in" coaching, 6B4Gs in P-P-P, and it was NOT the answer to powering a large Fulton speaker.

SETs are likely best employed with three speaker brands : ALTEC, JBL and ALE .

The amp you want to use in 2016 on is a big Spectral on that load. Look into it, and HEAR one on your speaker !! :-)
