Hi all ! this is almost the same thread I was involved with regarding my Thiel 1.6 's and my Cary v12 amp . With the cary set to triode mode (50 wpc) ,the combo was very satisfying . However , everone looked up reviews ,charts, etc to try to prove to me that my combo simply would not work . Of course, nobody had the combo I had ,but they were convinced it was horrible . I always laugh when I see a thread like this . If You like it , rock on .
Ayre V-Kxe and Thiel 2.4s
Anyone heard this combo?
I've been waiting for an appropriately priced Pass Labs 250.5 to pop up, but the wait has made me consider some other alternatives. In my conversations with Pass, they've steered me away from lower power options (e.g., the 150.5), so I'm concerned that the V-Kxe won't have enough power to really push the Thiels. However in reading over the positive Stereophile review of the 2.4s, I think much of the listening was done on the this amp. It does save me quite a bit of cash over the Pass 250.5 though.
Any opinions are welcome (along with other amp suggestions). Thanks folks.
