Audio research m300

They have speaker terminals on the back for 8,4,2,&1 ohm loads. Thank you for the reply. 

Yes, I know, but with the ARC the power is the same from all taps, unlike the Krell, which doubles its rated output as impedance halves.

I love the sound that my ksa pumps out. I feel like I need more of it, but am reluctant to try for a newer fpb ,300, 400, or 600 as they don't get as good of reviews as my ksa. 

yamasouras,

fellow Thiel owner here (CS 2.4SE). I would love to try a Krell power amp, as my speakers, crave high-current. Keep this in mind.

What other gear, including cables, is in your rig?

I still say try an active preamp if you need more volume.  Your Krell puts out plenty of juice that should be able to drive your speaker to high volume levels, but your use of the Wadia volume control does limit the gain you can put into the Krell.  This may be one of those situations where adding another component in the chain might offset the more direct route of going from the CD player to the amp.
