Preamp for Thiel 1.6's

Would like recommendations on a preamp for Thiel 1.6's. Also have Rotel 1095 power amp. Currently using a Pioneer 94 Receiver as a preamp, which works OK, but I suspect is the weakest link in the system. Thanks for your ideas.

When I used the Thiels with krell amps. The BAT preamps added a some warmth and alot of body that was missing.

Thiels are a very clear and serious window into the quality of your gear and your recordings too. You will hear the change in hiss on early Beatles recordings - where they spliced the tape! This will sometimes prove fascinating and other times a distraction.

Hi all ! For the way this system is described I would certainly lean to the Melos SHA-1 headphone amp / preamp ..tube driven with a warm sound .
