2nd Note;
Associated Brands (Solid State)- AYRE Acoustics, Bryston LTD., and Pass Labs. I can attest to this group for Integrated, Pre and Power Amps.
Happy Listening!
Thiel Owners
Guys-
I just scored a sweet pair of CS 2.4SE loudspeakers. Anyone else currently or previously owned this model?
Owners of the CS 2.4 or CS 2.7 are free to chime in as well. Thiel are excellent w/ both tubed or solid-state gear!
Keep me posted & Happy Listening!

hi Tom, i meant the audio show was noisy, especially the AV rooms. no problem with my wonderful 3.7's. Thanks. Hi Duramax, i think as long as the amp is capable of a lot of current, any good high powered SS amp will work. The Coda is really great and the only amp that i would consider to replace the Coda would be the new (not yet available BAT REX 300) . The BAT is a great preamp and was the end of a preamp search (i think the preamp is much more important than the amp in many ways). It was the PS BHK preamp, then the Pass XP22, then the Coda .07 and finally the BAT.

We could do this again with also previously attested to ss amp, but as ss amps are much more likely to be able to produce the current needed to double power output with halving of impedance (which also decreases the spec’d speaker sensisitvity by 3 dB for each halving) unlike most typical tube amps which do not.
