Tube Amp recommendation for Thiel CS1.6 under $2k
Noticed a lot of tube amps have low wattage ratings and my Thiels say 50-300W.
Have a 24’ x 18’ and looking for a recommendations or thoughts on best integrated or power amp (ideally vintage) to drive them nicely.
i know thiels very well, still have cs5is and a pair of 3.5s. try to find a BEL1001, it tames them very well.
Sold thiels for years the 1.6 were not hard to drive a good 100watt tube amplifier sounds marvelous with them

There are a number of fantastic, well reviewed Class D amps that could be had for a song, so to speak, and will really make the speakers sing.
