Thiel 2.3's Power Hungry??


Every time I add more POWER to these they sound a little better. They open up and sound smoother. Has anyone had the same experience? How much power has any one thrown at the speakers untill you were satisfied?
128x128fleone
Classe 150,Bryston 250,Meridian 200. Believe it or not The Meridian has the highest current and plays the cleanest this is the AMP I use now with balanced cabels. Souns great but I want to bridge to 1000 watts into the 4 ohm load. The watts above are into 8 ohm loads.
I am a fellow Thiel 2.3 owner. I am using a Pass Labs x-150 on them right now. I am saving up for the x-350. Like you said the more power the better.
Yes, even though the 2.3 is more efficient than other Thiels, well, at lower power levels my experience was that the sound was lean. I got good results with CJ Premier 12's at 140 watts per side, but I suspect that doubling the power would have resulted in a still more balanced presentation. This taught me a lesson in interpreting the "sensitivity" spec of a loudspeaker........
