Build me a killer Rock/Metal Rig for 1K

my old rig is history..devoured by a audio eating species called AudiogoN'ers All I could save were a pair of Thiel 3.5's that have many good years left on them.They are 89 dB and 4 ohm of hunger.Help me..for less than $1000 show me an amp to tame the Thiel beasts,a pre(tubed/remote) to sweeten the Thiel beast.A CDP or SACDP to sing to the Thiel beast.My cage is 14'X20'X8' I listen to classic rock/metalmodern rock/metal lots of classic pop and some heavy metal rap.I dont need window shattering SPL's just decent volume with great bass and transparency. Oh yeah,I also need recommendations for cables to keep the Thiel beast from wandering away and some wires to tie the electronics together.A grand aint much to work on so, vintage gear?

You must save and take a the leap to $1500 ...

The Jolida 1501RC is one of those rare finds, a hybrid
integrated 100-watt amp for under $600. Superb unit.

The mmf cd-25 is another gem by Music Hall, a lovely CD
player that can be had for around $500.

The DIY speakers by EFE have to be heard to be believed.
Assembled by Ed himself, they run about $600. But you
could step down to his modified BIC towers for $400.

For the amp and CD player, contact Walter Liederman at

For the speakers, contact Ed Frias at efespkrs@aol.com
