Looking to change from Thiel 7's

I am going to get rid of the Thiels. I am not very happy with them. I have had to have the 7'2 rebuilt twice and the same with the 3.6's. I am running Classe Omega amps and pre amps with Cardas cables. I would like reccomendations on a good speaker that can handle the Omegas. I do like to turn it up at times ans am looking for something that still has the sound quality but also can take a beating from the Omega's.
Thanks for any thoughts.

Look for speakers with Dynaudio drivers, they have high power handling and can take >1000 watt of short term dynamic, even on a 1" tweeter! I won't get into their sound quality as everyone has their preferences.

Without knowing your budget, I will say Dynaudio Contour or Confidence can be a good starting point.

Maybe go get hearing aid.

I would find the largest, baddest disco speakers available-I would start with Cerwin-Vega and also look at Bose, just to be sure...

I have had 7.2s for 7 years and have never had any problems. I use them for movies and music. You must have a BIG room or are getting some serious ear damage.

Perhaps the speakers need to be repaired?
