Nice system. I'm running the Shearwater HRs bi-wired also with simple integrated. Love the sound. Curious as to whether you've tried the bi-amping with the tubes and accuphase amp.

OOPS that I forgot!

There are a few different ways to get that straight:

One is to have two outs preamp and another is using a Y-connector.
A good quality Y-connector you may search among Dayton Audio in www.partsexpress.com

They are bi-wireable. How do I set that up? I understand the Accuphase out to the woofer in on the speakers and Jolida out to the tweeters, but how does the source signal get to both amps? Thanks, Rich

I assume that Shearwaters are bi-wireable and you may incorporate both of the worlds: your tube amp and SS.
THe crossover isn't neccessary if you will interface SS amp with additional volume controll(preferably active but passive is OK as well) thus you will be able to adjust a tonal balance between both of them...
