I have owned 5 different models in the Thiel line and I would strongly recommend Classe. They have a "Tube" like sound and are very warm sounding. The have lots of power and are very well built. I have never had them be fatiguing at all. My ecpierence with Adcom is that thry are under powered compared to Classe and they feel and look cheap. Bryston to me sounds thin and unimpressive, weak, I.M.H.O. If you look back thru reports from HiFi shows you will find Thiel, Classe and MIT alot, and they are always considered to be a good combo. Anyway ,Good Lucl to you!
Help me choose an amp
My Aragon 8008 died. Now I must replace (OK with me,
I was burned out on the "solid state" vibe anyway).
Want to find a warm, musical, non-fatiguing power amp
(not integrated) for a large bedroom (26 x 24 x 8).
Must integrate well with:
McCormack SST-1 drive
Meridian 563 DA conv.
Audio Research L7S pre
Thiel CS2 2 spkrs
Listen to rock, pop, acoustic music, some jazz. Prefer used tube or warm SS-type like Bryston. Prefer to
keep the price tag under $1200. Ideas?
