Need Dado blade stack recommendations

I prefer the router table for making stopped dados and rabbets.  Other wise it's only used for decorative trim, round over and the like.  Through dados and rabbets get done with the dado stack at the table saw.  Just my preference.

In Sawstops FAQs it states Do not use dado sets with solid-plate interior chippers"  what are these? I have a CMT set - that I like a lot - but do they have solid-plate chippers - they are very solid :-)

 

in a fine woodworking article - http://www.finewoodworking.com/how-to/article/how-to-cut-tenons-on-the-tablesaw-with-a-dado-set.aspx

in 2009 Michael pekovich is using a similar dado stack.

Just looking for clarification.

Thanks in advance.

the issue is not whether it will run - it's whether the brake will stop the stack.  surely if you are using 8" dado sets then the standard brake is never going to stop that blade in a timely fashion - the distance from blade to brake is going to be almost one inch from it.  But maybe I am just misunderstanding, and you are using the dado brake and have never changed the gap...
