Wrong speakers

I did the same thing when I first entered the audiophile world. I locked up an ARC vs-110 amp, blue circle pre, and then moseyed around the speaker world before finding the Maggie 3.6r. It was a circuitous route, but it worked out. Thus time, tho, I started with reference 3a de capos and found the LSA Statement integrated to be a perfect fit.

Anyhow, you also might try Triangle speakers. Tho you really can't go wrong with MBL or even Vandersteens.

If you are bummed by Theils treble with your SS output stage precision amp, I strongly recommend speakers with a very sweet "musical" top end. I own Focal 936s and would say they are too clinical for you but there is a pair on sale right now pretty cheap. The speaker I would advise you to get are Nolas. The whole line is targeted towards people who like rich tone and sweet treble. I don't own them but have heard them and thought about it quite seriously. Read a few reviews to get an idea.
It took me several years to get the right amp and speaker combination, so take it easy and be prepared, for some trial and error. That is what has happened to the industry for all the reasons you spelled out about being unable to audition gear.

Would also vote for Vandersteen if tweeter output is a concern...they have "Contour Controls" on the back for this application...might come in handy....they also have a more spacious presentation than Thiels....which some might prefer...
