jeroboam,
Good to see you here again. I venture to say that the intermittent crackling are your aged electronics. 24 years is quite a run for Amp, Pre-Amp and cd player.
Bryston, Meridian are no doubt, built to last!

Not a bad idea to have the Power amp checked out and tuned up.

Good to see you here as always. Yes, doing very well here.

I suspect that the Pre-amp could benefit from a tune up as well.

Thank You for citing Dan Wright's reply to your KWA 100 SE query. Did Dan talk about peak current in (A)mperes ?

Welcome! Good to see you here tonight. Owning Power Planes, 3.5 and CS 2.4, you certainly have the Thiel bases covered. Stand by until a Panel member chimes in about 3.5's being in a corner. The CS 2.4 will not sound as accurate placed in a corner.
Take the time to read though this thread. There is a plethora of information that addresses all of the speakers in your room/system. I look forward in reading more about musical tastes and system gear.

i wanted to circle back around on the ModWright query.
I believe that the Integrated amp would be a contender at 200 wpc.
Nice current delivery as well.

I have not had a Peachtree audition. Consider an audition with your local dealer/retailer or contact Peachtree to inquire specs on the Nova 300 model.
Over the years, I used this method for internal information not discussed in Audio press reviews.

bobscliff
Excellent! keep me posted as you massage the Nova 300 into your room/system.
Stay tuned until 1 of the Panel members chimes in about repairing Midrange surround.

Thank You for another Thiel Audio history lesson. So could consider Kentucky an odd place for Audio. Same can be said for Utah, at least, the state of Kentucky is Horse country. I figured you and Dave (RIP) visited each other via Audio shows back then.
A pleasure to have you here as well. Keep developing and researching.

Thank You for more AYRE/Thiel/Vandy comparisons. It is good to have another well-rounded member of the Panel. Last year, I had an opportunity to demo the Kento loudspeaker(closest to my CS 2.4SE by Vandy). I actually liked it better than the Model 7 series.

The closest I have ever traveled to such a Loudspeaker system was the gentleman, whom I purchased, my CS 2.4SE speakers. I his studio, he owned an original Infinity IRS Beta V set-up. Impeccable, all-original, from 1985. No modifications at all. You would have been impressed by his room and system.
I did not want to leave,
Happy Listening!

No- no auditioning experience with either WAMM/WATT. Although short in length, the Video gave a small Audio sample of an incredible venture via Dave Wilson (RIP). I wish those guys from JS Audio (Baltimore) would have played more musical selections.
And what an incredible mix of Cabling and Gear (something old, something new)!
I can only imagine the room/space to house such a behemoth System!
Happy Listening!

Continued (work interruption)
In house at Audio Advice, I auditioned the Sasha and Sophia loudspeakers.
Still, not as rich in presentation and sound to a CS 2.4 model. Across the street is Audio Excellence. Here I would run the table with CS 2.4, 2.4SE (the clear winner), CS 2.7 and CS 3.7 models. I would visit these guys again in 2014 and the owner would not sell the CS 2.4SE. All other models were for sale.
Over the last 3 years, I have heard Wilson Audio Alexx, Sasha DAW and Sabrina for reference. These particular speakers are far better than original Sasha and Sophia by a wide margin. The Alexx does have the richness of my CS 2.4SE for $100K. Then , there is the cabling , gear, and room to match.

2nd Note on Wilson Audio;
In the Fall of 2012, I found myself in Raleigh NC for work. As luck would have it, I found a Thiel Audio and Wilson Audio dealer/retailer across the street from each other. I had my 1st CS 2.4 demo earlier that Spring and was curious about Wilson Audio for comparison.

tomthiel
Thank You for the kind words and participation here. Yes, I have my finger on the pulse to be sure. As I have reported many, many times here, it takes quite a large sum of Money to better my CS 2.4SE loudspeakers. Incredible!
My 1st demo of CS 2.4SE are Serial Numbers (50/51). Knowing now what I did not know, back then, makes me want them even more!
An enhanced CS 2.4 loudspeaker sounds wonderful.

Welcome! Nice inheritance gear! Are you looking to move up to a new System?
I believe that there is at least 1 member of the Panel in your locale. Stay tuned until he chimes in to address your query. Yes, Anthem, is a sonic match for Thiel loudspeakers. Model 225 Integrated amp does a very nice job from CS 2.4 up to CS 3.7

An update: the Wilson Audio Alexx, is now, Alexx V at $135-151,000 retail.
When I tell you guys that it takes much more money to beat a Thiel Audio speaker, I am not joking around.
Sidenote:
I do not know the retail pricing of a Vandy Kento model? I am sure that pricing is mid- 5 figures.

Welcome! Good to see you here today. Stay tuned until one of the Panel members here or Mr. Rob Gillum at CSS can advise. The SS1 and SS2 are still quite popular after all these years. Still available around the internet marketplaces too! Tell me more about your Full Thiel system and musical tastes.

Good to see you here again. Stay tuned until one of the Panel members chimes in on those 3.6 loudspeakers. We have quite a few fans and owners here. In general, Krell amplification is a sonic match. I look forward in reading more about your musical tastes.

Welcome! Our condolences for your Father. What an incredible inheritance!
You are fortunate to live in the DC corridor. Plenty of Audiophiles there. Thank You for posting here- I do not object in the least. Facebook is excellent. As well as the other "net" outlets.
