Thiel 3.6, what will drive them best?

you could consider an Amber series70 amp there built well run cool and can be ran in mono.They go for about 175.00 to 190.00 and can be found either on this site or Ebay. Also a NY audiolab 300 hybrid is a good buy and might also do the trick.

An Acoustat 200 mosfet amp now that might be the ticket, anyone think this could be a good gamble for price and power?

After reading your posts I have an idea.

Would it be possible to get a sub $1000 amp and run it now,
and later buy an exact match and run them both bridged to mono? That way I can stick to my budget now yet down the road move up to a much more powerful setup.

How would that work? Is this possible?

Thank you all,
Ron

Something from either Bryston or Classe will do the job well.

A buddy of mine has the M-200s what they use Plitron transformers in his pair. He also uses one of the Musical Concepts mods which really improved them. I had a DH-220 Hafler completely modified by Musical Concepts, close to $2700 for the mods (but I purchased the amp used for less) and it was a killer SS amp. Balls to the walls power, room shaking bass, very fast and very dynamic, with frequency extension at both ends plus it was very musical for SS. I prefer tube sound so I use tubes myself with speakers that do not require big watts to drive them.

Hope this helps. The Aragon and Parasound amps are also good alternatives. I am not a fan of the Bryston sound. The Carver signature series power amp is also a consideration.

Happy Listening.
