hi gang! i've listened to several amps on my 4 pi's, everything from single ended tubes to cheap solid state. nothing can deliver the performance of tubes to my ears yet i want the volume of solid state. i have a set of mission 776/777 amp-pre-amp and also a pair of restored quad II tube monoblocks. after reading an article in audioexpress about the Rane electronic x-over i'm tempted to purchase a used one and run solid state for the bottom and tubes for the top end. the reviewer was impressed with the performance compared to the passive set-up. anybody running active now? do i still need to run a capacitor on tweeter to augment the top octave?

cheers,

george
