I see, this tri-way Quad system for sure shall be much different from regular Quas. I kind of even understand why you stay with open baffle bas to support the system’s bass. For sure it will not Bruckner-style pressurize a room as non-dipole bass would do but it for sure shall go alone with Quads well. I would like like to hear the think, which city are in? So, essentially when you talk about bass from 6C33C you were talking about the 6C33C amp drive sub 100Hz woofer or effectively in might be a bass DSET? Try to play with 6C33C loading. I do not know the Supravox drivers and particularly in open baffle and electromagnets drive but among the drivers that I experienced I have seen that 6C33C is very sensitive for loading. If you feel that it was “but too dryness” and if you need to get more “beef” than just make the tube to idle a bit less. You will pick up more harmonies (and get more “beef”) and you get slightly more power from the tube. I mean if you load your 6C33C to let say 600R then make it 500R or 550R. It will be much softer sound with more “round” corners. You might not feel that it is too dry anymore. As the very temporary test, juts to preview the result you might short your woofer with 30-100R power resistor. You will lose some transients in bass and some other attributes of quality but you will get a preview how the heavier loaded 6C33C might sound and a send if it is a good direction for you to go.

Let me know about the results.
