Thiel CS 2.4 Amplifier Pairing


Was looking to purchase a pair of Thiel CS 2.4 to try.  My amplifiers are Yamaha MX-1 and Yamaha MX-1000.  Would this be a good match to use? I've read alot about Thiel speakers needing alot of power and many of the forum users have Classe, Krell, ML,amps, etc... The speakers I currently use are Elac Vela 403 BS and B&W 803 Nautilus in a 20x25 room.  Thiels are lengendary and the sound signature might not be for everyone but I would love to try them to hear them.  Cheers

Good advice as above. Stay away from Class-D Power amp(s). Both Yamaha MX-1 and MX-1000 amps are 2-ohm stable. Give each a try. The CS 2.4 speaker is a Honey and very receptive. I 1st audition was on a Creek integrated amp at less than 100 wpc. This loudspeaker is not hard to drive. Feel free to join Us over on the

Thiel Owners thread. We have many CS 2.4 fans and owners on The Panel.

 

Happy Listening!
