mac and vac amps with thiel 3.6


I am almost certain to buy one of these two integrated tube products. If I cannot make them work with the speakers I will change the speakers. Anyone heard either combo with the 3.6.

as has been pointed out before on the forum, Kevin Hayes voices and tests all his VAC products on the 3.6's he has at the VAC factory. i would say the VAC would be a safe bet with the Thiels.
i actually use a VAC auricle with Thiel 1.6s and love them. combination particularlly suits my smaller UK room (15'x25'). thiels seem to have a characteristic impedence dip, which one would think would be a problem for a tube amp, but the VAC seems to not take any notice. if this is the bottom of the VAC range, i would have no worries about other VAC models with Thiels.
