Audible Illusions 3A ....question?

How would Audible Illusions-3A, pre-amp mate with "laid-back" SS amp? Or.. any other suggestions in 1.5K, or less, used! Thanks!

I recently had the amp upgraded by SMc Audio to the Revision A Gold and it's even better still. I'm using Thiel 3.6's and it's handling them very well.

My speakers are Thiel 1.5's. This power amp is solid state, but may not be considered laid back compaired to other designs.
