Think about a BAT tube preamp and VK-500 amp, it's in your price range and I'm guessing it would be a great match although I haven't heard this particular combo.
Best electronics for Thiel CS3.6 ?
What, in your opinion , are the best preamp/amp combinations for driving the 3.6s for under $5000 the pair new or used. I'm upgrading. There's a lot of stuff out there I have not heard (recent Audio Research stuff for example). I'm hoping to create a short list based on your input! Thanks in advance. I'm currently looking at Audible Illusions 3A and Bryston 4B-SST. I listen to LPs regularly so line stages will nmot do w/o a phono reccomendation too.
