I have a question on my Klipsch Cornscala, hybrid-speaker build. The Cornscalas are 3 way speakers with woofers at 96 db sensitivity, mids at 108 db to 115 db depending on the horn, and the tweeters at 107 db. If I run a solid state amp on the woofers without a passive crossover and a tube amp on the midrange and tweeters, matched together with a passive crossover, can I run a MiniDSP 2/4 HD between the woofer amp and midrange/tweeter amp, and boost the gain of the woofer amp to match the native sensitivity of the mids and highs running near their lowest native sensitivity of 107 db, rather than dropping them to 96 db to match the woofers native impedance with a passive 3 way x-over? Paul Klipsch was all about sensitivity, and it would make my little 6 watt tube amp seem much more powerful. Thanks in advance for any insight!
Hope this is the right place to post this. If not, please guide me to where it should go.

Yes. Your 6W amp will probably never clip now. If you change to solid state for the woofer you'll have to be more generous.
