I plan on something similar. What I would do is to play those pieces with strong bass that cause the 57s to creak or complain at high volume. Using the volume level you would like to listen at but are afraid of over-driving the 57s, add a 4th-order high-pass filter in the mini-DSP and slowly increase the corner frequency from, say 40Hz, upwards until there is no longer any creaking and set that as your corner. That will give you the widest, trouble-free range on the 57s. Also, you could use REW to see if where the panels start rolling off and add a little DSP boost there to flatten things before the sharp high-pass cut-off.
