RE: Tri-amping T IV-A's with tubes?

Actually, now I found one nice tube amp DIY kit, which gives around 28 watts of output AND can be easily modified for 2 ohm outputs also, so low impedance shouldn't be a problem at all! :-)

Also, drivers' different sensitivities/volumes is not a problem either, since I can easily match them on the DEQX.

But Roger, when you say that "mids/tweeters do need a fair bit of power", what exactly do you mean, how much is "fair" for highs, how much for mids? Have you tried some lower power (tube) amps on them, what happened, how was the sound? I don't need "realistic" volumes anyway, I usually like to listen at quite mediocre volume levels.

And I understand well that it might be hard to say any exact wattages, "enough power" depends on so many variables. But if someone here has already tried any low power amps on 3-way setup, I'd really would appreciate to hear some real life experiences, both good and bad.
