Thiel 3.6 to Eggleston Andras II

Thanks Dev, why do you feel I will have to change my amplification? Using Mac 501's...

I really love my Andra ll's. Previously to the Andra's I had the Legacy Focus which is another great " Rock" speaker. I listened to many speakers including the Thiels,Wilson Watt Puppy 8's/ Sophia 2 and I chose the Andra ll's.
To me the Watt Puppy had a disjointed sound between the bass and the rest of the music. The Thiels sounded very lean. I have never listened to the new Wilson Sashas.

I am also using a Pass Labs Amp the X350.5 to drive the Andra's. But I think the Mac's would work great also.

Thanks Ozzy, nice system btw...

Hi Pops, your Mac will work I owned a pair and actually had them paired up with the Andras with my ARC REF3. Then I had a chance to audition the Pass X600.5's again paired up with the ARC REF3 and prefered the sonics over all across the spectrum, no comparison actually. Notice how the ARC REF3 stays, that's a great pce and long term keeper always connected with balanced cables.

Just trying to assist because I've been there and done it already but those new Pass amps weren't out at the time so that's why I mentioned them also. I've heard the comparision in a friends set-up and preferred the new design by a large margine, only down factor is they do run warmer.

So to fast track and save your self some money and time this would be my sugestion;

Andra II's
ARC REF3 pre
Amps
Pass 100 or preferably 160's if you have a larger space and you are done for a very long time.

Pops if you refer to Ozzy system you will see some of my post in 2007, also you can refer to my past threads and find info. Absolutely a great speaker!

Hi Ozzy how's it going, Happy new Year! we haven't chaited for a while, I'm still loven my MBL 101E's.
