Do not even try your tube amps with SL600!

The SL600 is very low sensitivity and if you drive it with more or less powerful SET amp then you will ruin SL600. I have destroyed 6 (six) of SL600. A 5 minutes  of driving SL600 with 8W-10W SET as reasonably high volume and you will never get proper HF from SL600.

What happens is that low power SET will unavoidably clip driving this type of load. Even if some people can’t hear the negative auditable consequence of clipping but the act of clipping itself creates a huge amount of HF harmonics (over auditable range). Some tweeter and crossover can hold it but the SL600 can’t. No, you will not burn you tweeter but you will overheat it once and then the speaker will always gave a very idiosyncratically -bad HF.

What you drive SL600 then stay above 80-100W into 8R. If you drive SL600 with an amp over 2W and sub 50W then NEVER make SL600 to play loud.
