I would go with Classe or McIntosh. I have listened to a Classe 400 on CS2.2s extensively and I loved it - very impressive. The owner of the 2.2s now uses a MC352 and I find it is at least as good as the Classe. I had a KSA-150 driving my Paradigm Reference 100s and (happily) got rid of it for a McIntosh too.
Good upgrade amp for my Thiel 3.6s
My apologies if this has been pondered already. I did a quick search of the site for 3.6s and didn't find a similar thread.
I'm looking for opinions on what amp would seriously upgrade my sound from where it is currently. I have a KSA-150 driving the 3.6s.
I've heard people say that 3.6s can sound even better with more power and a dealer recommended 200W/channel as a minimum for them.
He was showing me the Classe Cam350s. Are monoblocks the way to go, or is there a killer stereo amp out there that's not in the price leagues of Boulder?
Obviously, I'm sure there's plenty of great choices, but I'd like to keep costs somewhat reasonable. I know the Classes retail for $7K for the pair. I was hoping to stay at $4K or under, but won't rule out the 350s if they really make a noticeable difference.
Thoughts?
