| Audio research d-110 owners Look for a used Parasound A21. Drove my 2.4’s with ease. | |
| Looking for a tube Preamp new or used for under $2000... I have a BAT VK 3Ix pre I use with my A21, and yes, it works wonderfully. But I believe this concept would work well with most SS amps, unless they are overly warm. But even then . . . | |
| Audio research d-110 owners My mistake I thought it was a tube amp. I agree if it’s bright stay AWAY. been there done that. | |
| Audio research d-110 owners Well this isn’t a direct answer, but I use a ARC Classic 60 to run my Thiel CS 2.4’s with ease, I use the 4 ohm tap and it sound great.I know the 3.6’s are notoriously difficult to drive, but ARC gear just works on mine.be warned, you may need to ... | |

| Audio envy - dang! @maxima95 No mine do not look like that. I don’t think there is a pic on the site of mine but I may be mistaken. | |
| Audio envy - dang! My SP-9 speaker cables came in last night. I replaced the PAD cables I had and the immediate difference appears to be more clarity and not as dark. They appear to add or take away nothing, at least compared to the PAD cables. My only complaint is ... | |
| Audio envy - dang! Well my speaker cables just shipped today. I’ll have a full loom minus PC’s. | |
