Do you think 150Hz is too low with a 7W SET?

In all honesty, I think I was heavily influenced by the Zu Druid 'hype' myself. I had bought the Berning (without really thinking too much, really - it seemed like a good idea at the time!) and was then stumped as to what to use with it. I didn't have space for horns (although I do now), and the Druids seemed, from what I had read, to fit the bill.

But now that I've got the Berning and the Druids, I feel obliged to at least try making them work together...

I do know, Mani, it is hard to say. My crossover strategy is not to cross where is it necessary from logical point of view but where it necessary from sonic point of view. In practical terms it means that you need to look at the quality of you complimentary upperbass section and to listen what acoustic system and amplification cases the octaves of your interest better. Also, you have that freaky Berning  Siegfried. I mean “freaky” because it is not a regular amp that is more or less predictable to a degree but Mr. Berning‘s own OTL switching creation. It is god or bad – it is know only for the people who use it – and it is much unknown to me how it behaves driving the Zu Druid’s port. I have local guy with Berning  amp but he has a conventional  non- freaky Berning. In your case it is hard to predict anything.
