Anyone help with Triangle Celius

I heard and liked the speaker. I am concerned about fatiguing highs, though. I have a Krell KAV 300i amp at 150 wpc. Would this be too much for the speakers? The krell is already a bright amp. Cardas Cross cables. Any ideas for suitable alternatives with the Krell and Cardass? Thanks.

I use a Classe Cap-100 with my Celius and don't find them bright at all.I'm sure I would be aware of it because I hate that shrill sound.(B&W for example)

Definitely a preference for low-powered tube electronics. I'm using the Audiomat Arpege [30 watts & EL34s] and the combo is by far the best that I've ever owned, easily surpassing all of the expensive stuff. Just got back from catching Marc-Andre Hamelin in person & enjoyed his Composer-Pianists cd even more than the live concert!

For the guy wanting to use the Avatar, that would work fine. Classe is softer on top and should be good too. We have had great results with the Cary SLI-80 Signature integrated amp.

Also have used various 15w single ended amps, including the super cheap ASL MGSI15DTSI at about $700. That is butter! But limited volume. A classic EL-34 push-pull amp would be cool too.

The beauty is, the sp4eaker does not need much power. But there is no such thing as too much power, so if you are thing Triangle and think you have to buy a new amp because you own a monster, don't sweat it.
