Does a Class D amp match well with Thiel Speakers?

I own sililarely difficult to drive speakers: Sasha by Wilson Audio. I tried many amplifiers (mostly class A and A/AB) and I am extremely happy with Spectron amplifier (matched with Joule-Electra preamplifier).

If you can audition Spectron - go for it, and you will have your own opinion.

Just a clarification to a note posted above. ARC's class D amps were the 150.2 and 300.2, both using Triamp modules, which went into production in 2004 and were discontinued when Triamp went out of business in 2007 (the 300.2 is not the same as the D300, an older class A/B SS model from the mid-90s). Their current class D amps are the brand-new DS225 and DS450. The SD135 (produced after the 150.2 & 300.2, and before the new DS series) was a class A/B amp.

Put me on the Spectron side of this answer.
The 'only' issue is THIEL's propensity toward an analytical sound...usually ameliorated with tubes in the preamp stage...just sayin'.

Good listening.

I am considering the Pass Labs X-10 Preamplifier.

Again, you may consider a tube pre...in order to 'soften' the sound.
The THIEL can be, depending on the other gear in the system, somewhat 'dry' sounding. Potato, potaaaato.
I always preferred them with a tube somewhere.
Kathy Gornik, (now owner of THIEL) and I used to say, laughingly, 'I never heard a solid state amp that I didn't like better with a tube preamp'....the meaning clear, especially in the context of THIEL speakers in the chain.
