Thiel Owners

"Not to pick on any specific brands, but the some of the often recommended amps from companies such as Ayre, Bryston, Pass, PS Audio, etc. might work wonderfully with some Thiel’s, but are not designed or spec’d by those very manufactures, (independent testing, such as those found in Stereophile will also confirm this) for the sub 4 Ohm loads of some later model Thiel’s."   I cannot comment on some of the other brands listed by Unsounds, but the PS audio BHK 250 amp is magnificent with my 3.7's, and i have a friend who sold a Classe amp to get the BHK for his 3.7's, and he too is very impressed and pleased.  the only thing better would be to get the BHK mono blocks.

Thanks for the responses guys! 

I have a buddy going to listen to the one pair of 2.4s that will need to be shipped if I decide on them. (He’s taking his Laptop and Mytek DAC with familiar music to demo) 

We both have Revel F208s, although his are 2 channel duty and mine are L/R part
of a HT/MCH music system in a massive open living area. 

The 3.6s are semi-local to me (in Texas at least) lol but haven’t contacted that seller as of yet. 

Thanks again and I’ll update when I have something going. 

Since we're talking about amps again, I would add that Kent at Pass directed me to the X.8 series rather than the XA.8 series, saying that the X series would mate better with the Thiels.
