If the MIT are anything like Transparent...loose em and the sound should open up a bunch. You may want to try a VTL 2.5 preamp to see how that sounds. I use a pair of VTL MB185s, the VTL 5.5 sig preamp, HT truthlinks and pro-9s and i'm real happy. The pro silways sound good between the amp and pre but keep them away from the CD player
