classe ca-300 or bryston 4b sst for thiel 2.4


i am currently running my thiel 2.4 with a classe ca-300 amp, but i am not 100% happy. i am getting a 4bsst for a bargain price. which amp is a better match with thiel??
my other equipment is sonic frontiers line 1 preamp, classe cdp cd player and acoustic zen cables.
i am looking for more bass and not to bright highs.
thanks in advance

i had a 4bsst that i sold to lower my investment in gear due to other priorities. replaced with B&K monoblocks - the 4bsst was definitely warmer and low end extenstion for day. driving a pair of Boston Lynnfield 500L's this is the best amp i had used to date. (ive had proceed, aragon, adcom, ayre and legacy...) the ayre would be the choice if it had more power - imo.
plenty of power to satisfy these inefficient speakers. i have never audiotioned a Classe in my system although i have heard good things about them. if you can save $1000 or so on the bryston i would think that is the way to go. not the absolute last word in resolution however. i heard esl makes an amp that has huge current and great sonics - maybe worth a try?
