Thiel 1.6's or Quad 22L's ? Opinions Please.


I've pretty much decided to stay away from planers for my music listening tastes(electric blues.classic rock) my short list if the Thiel 1.6's and Quad 22L's. I'd like some opinions on these 2 choices. Current amp is a Rotel 1070 integrated and cd is soon to arrive Cary 308. I like a dynamic, lively sound-not quite Klipsch lively though.
Thanks,

The Thiels take more power to open them up if you listen loud and the outriggers do help. Beautiful build quality. This is a honey of a speaker in Thiels line. These probably take as much power as Magnepan 1.6's but will play a little louder.

The Quad's are really nice sounding when pulled into the room and away from the back wall. They are easier to drive.
