| Tube amp for planar speakers and SS pre I think you are getting good advise regarding final speaker selection. I believe your preamp might sound best from it's balanced outputs. I'm not sure how critical this is in the big picture, but you might want to consider maximizing the sound of ... | |
| Bryston B60 or old 3B + .5B For what ever it's worth I think Bryston's 3BST is the best product value they ever made. | |

| Cocktail of choice when listening to fav music? I like Scot(ch) whiskey, but I think Laphroig taste like iodine. Laphroig is one of the more popular malts used in blends, but it's a over the top for me. I have a friend who really likes it. My favorite really smokey (think barbecue) scotch is La... | |
| music , mind , thought and emotion For most people music is a language. Especially since the almost global acceptance of the chromatic scale. 4/4 time is as common as typical speech patterns. Just as a sour taste makes our mouths pucker, certain sounds make us tap our feet or even ... | |

| Krell and CJ? No C-J has balanced outputs or inputs. | |
| Krell and CJ? I like both Krell and C-J on Thiels. They are different but both bring something to the table. I think the Krells are better. I use C-J. Never heard C-J and Krell together. IMHO the Classe amps are at best just OK on the Thiels. | |
| Build me a killer Rock/Metal Rig for 1K Inscrutable, those are the manufacturers specs. While all such specs need to be taken with a grain of salt I believe Thiel to be one of the better manufacturers in regard to legitimate specs. Jim Thiel intentionaly designs his products in this man... | |
| Build me a killer Rock/Metal Rig for 1K Inscrutable, The Thiel 3.5 impedance load is 4 Ohms nominal and 4 Ohms minimal. Frequency response is 20 to 20K +/- 2 db. The speakers are time and phase coherent. I really think adding a sub woofer would be a big mistake. I think the most importa... | |
