Can I get some Love for Thiel CS 2.2s?

Yo. Fellow goners,
I would love to know what you drive your 2.2s with, how long you've owned them, and if your as stoked with them as I am.
Later on,
The Fowl

I thought it was a great combination, the Thiels definitely need an amp with some reserve power to take advantage of how dynamic they can be.

Thiels detail and be a bit bright and can be tamed with the right amp without sacrificing that detail.
