Thiel cs 3.7 vs Rockport Atria
I won't need subs because my room is not large enough.The extra money for a better DAC-Preamp. 
Thiel cs 3.7 vs Rockport Atria
My room will be 15x20 which i think is enough for 3.7's.They are a 2009 model therefore i will have to make the lastest upgrade that was available starting from 2013 i think. 
Thiel cs 3.7 vs Rockport Atria
Well unfortunately they are no longer available but i can purchase a used pair in perfect shape for half price of a new.Obviously Rockports is not the same budget. 
Datzeel vs Asr Emitter exclusive vs Devialet
Thanks Altanpsx for your words.You are right the ASR 4 boxes version is really amazing.But i think my favorite combo at the moment is the Karan KA-S 600 amp with the Aesthetix Calypso Signature preamp.That combo on Thiel CS 3.7 should be a killer.... 
Datzeel vs Asr Emitter exclusive vs Devialet
Any of you tried the Mcintosh MA8000 in the above price range ?I liked the ASR very much, auditioned on Thiel cs 3.7 very nice combo. 
Dan D'agostino Momentum Integrated amp
Thanks Jwmazur for your input.Do you think it is worth putting that much money in an integrated ?Is the sound really worth 45000 $ ?At the moment i'm looking into the Mcintosh MA8000 or the ASR Emitter II Exlusive but was curious about the D'agost... 
Ayon Audio S5 vs Audio Research Reference DAC
You are totally right Minorl, i will audition some of these units at home.Do you think the AR Ref DAC is a very good all in one solution ? or should i go seperates ?My speakers will be Thiel CS 3.7, amp Bryston 28B-SST2 or one of the big Karan Aco... 
Bryston 28B-SST2 or Karan Acoustics KA-S 600 ?
Ok thanks guys i will definitely listen to the 28Bs SST2, should be a great match for Thiels cs 3.7Will probably put a tube preamp in front.Any of you guys tried the big Karan amps ? 
Bryston 28B-SST2 or Karan Acoustics KA-S 600 ?
Any of you have compared the Bryston 7B to the 28B in sound quality ?The 28B beeing the flagship i guess there is a difference apart from the power difference. 
Bryston 28B-SST2 or Karan Acoustics KA-S 600 ?
Many thanks Wrm57, i will try to audition a pair of 28B when i can.Here in Europe they retail for 10370 €, very reasonable i think compare to other brands.I heard that the Ayre MX-R KX-R combo is also a very good choice but i think to expensive fo... 
Bryston 28B-SST2 or Karan Acoustics KA-S 600 ?
Thanks guys for your response, your are right Soundhut Brystons are not the best musical amps for Thiels but perhaps putting a tube preamp like Audio Research or tube source in front might help ?Karan amps are very musical but the price tag is scary.
