Thiel CS2.4 and suggestion on preamp
Please excuse me, I think I got confused by your earlier post. I thought you were referring to the issue of the complexity of balanced vs. the simplicity of single ended. Often times a separate pre will offer stronger output to the amp, increasin...

True balanced operation should diminish the potential for distortion.

'they blew'em off the stage'
Philojet, sorry for the late reply, just saw this thread again after a long time. Again I wasn't there, but from what I understand the Monkees teeny bopper fans nearly booed Hendrix off the stage.Audiofeil, couldn't agree more re: Mott The Hoople,...

Fixing Vandersteen 2c's?
If in fact 4 drivers are blown, it may or may not be worth repairing them. Good condition used Vandy 2's can be found rather inexpensively very often. One of the all time best values in all of high end audio, new or used. 
Good cables for a Krell system?
Caveat, I know nothing about your speakers. FWIW, the Alpha-Core Goertz MI3 speaker cables were made at the request of Krell for their high powered amplifiers. Alpha-Core offers a generous free trial period. 
Tell Me
I typically don't recommend people to buy speakers for amps. With that said, I've heard very nice sounds from Meadowlarks powered by the Electrocompaniet integrated. 
Nad M3? Need amp for Vandersteen 3 $3,000 budget

Warm Sounding Speakers
I'd suggest buying amplification for speakers, not speakers for amplification.
