A few years ago I used a VAC 100 watt per channel stereo amp to drive Thiel CS2.4s This combination worked well in a small room, but in my larger room (16’ x 23’) the 2.4s performed better with my Ayre VX 5/20 amp. VAC Renaissance preamp was employed in both settings.
Anybody using tube amps to drive Thiel CS 3.7's ?
I currently use a Classe Delta 2200 and a Conrad-Johnson CT5 preamp. I'm considering a jump to a tube amp. 80-100 kohm input impedance would be nice and I'd prefer only input from those who've heard Thiels driven with tubes...Thiels are hungry for High quality power. I have a moderate sized room (21 wide by 15 long). Let me hear your advice.
