35 volts isn't going to bother anything per se. It's well below the driver Pe and Xlim, and chances are that there's not enough content at 20-25Hz for it to be reaching xmax either. I just say limit at 28v if you have a limiter as there's very little to be gained by running hotter than that.

Difference between 28V and 35V: 2.5dB

If you need more low end, build another. +6dB.
