biamping my forte's?


Recommended Posts

I have what in theory is a great setup for bi amping my pair of forte's. a pair of 10 watt monoblock tubes amps and a set of solid state mono blocks. My concern is this , the tube amps start to soft clip at volume levels i still find pleasurable .( they have their own gain controls so I have for the moment bypassed the preamp and take the signal direct fro the nad 513 cd )they sound just great below that level but sometimes a peak will crackle a bit . If I bi amp then would the tubes have more power to drive the treble horns into the just loud enough range or have i already met the sensistivty limits of these horns and would be better off finding a pair of more sensitive cornwall2 chorus 2s la sacalas of belles . my room is 14x 14 . are they ways to upgrade the fortes to greater sensitivety regardless ?
