Anybody using tube amps to drive Thiel CS 3.7's ?


I currently use a Classe Delta 2200 and a Conrad-Johnson CT5 preamp. I'm considering a jump to a tube amp. 80-100 kohm input impedance would be nice and I'd prefer only input from those who've heard Thiels driven with tubes...Thiels are hungry for High quality power. I have a moderate sized room (21 wide by 15 long). Let me hear your advice.

I have been using VAC PA90E1 amps with my Thiel CS1.5 speakers for about 4 years with no problems in triode (50 watts) or ultralinear mode (100 watts). Kevin Hayes @ Vac is very familiar with Thiel speakers and uses them in his own house. He can let you know which of his amps would work best with the CS3.7's. I would give him a call.
