Krell KAV-250a/Thiel 3.6 questions

Anybody out there running Thiel 3.6's with this amp? I've put together my first HT with 4 Thiel 3.6's and an MCS-1. I'm driving them all with a KAV-250a 2-ch amp and KAV-250a/3 3-ch amp. My preamp is the 5.1 version of the Krell HTS. The previous owner was using these speakers in a HT with a Theta Dreadnaught. I've just replaced two mid-range drivers in the front channels and am wondering if I just pushed the volume a little too far or if I've got a synergy problem???

Speaker cabling is Audioquest Bedrock and ic's are audioquest diamondbacks.

Can an amp thats starving for power torch drivers like this?

The KAV-250a is not good enough for your 3.6 You need some real power.

Good luck.

If the 250/a is so not good enough, I'd like to hear if there are others running the KAV-250 to chime in with what they've found speaker-wise that works with this amp. Any and all input is welcome, I'm just trying to learn here.

Thanks,
Todd

My pair of Thiel 3.6's arrive Wednesday. My current amp is a Musical Fidelity Nu Vista M3 - wait a couple of weeks and I'll say if it would work with them or not!
