You better make sure you have a reliable ALC connection in there somewhere 
because you'll smoke the PW-1 if you hit it with a hundred watts.  They 
normally take about 35 -45 watts drive for full output.

Why not try driving the PW-1 directly with the KX3?  I did and it works 
fine.  I don't get a KW out, but it's quite respectable power out with 12 
watts drive.
