| Ayre V-Kxe and Thiel 2.4s Apologies; it was Martin Colloms, not John Atkinson who made those measurements.Bottom line is that more power does not necessarily translate into improved sound with the 2.4s. I failed to mention earlier that I have also owned Musical Fidelity's ... | |
| Ayre V-Kxe and Thiel 2.4s As Atkinson noted in his technical review of the CAV50, "On the test bench, the Conrad-Johnson CAV50 delivered a just-to-spec 53Wpc into 8 ohms (17.2dBW) for 1% distortion, midband. Loaded down to 4 ohms, it measured 78Wpc (15.9dBW) single-channel... | |
| Ayre V-Kxe and Thiel 2.4s Guys, next time you plan to be in Eugene, OR, please let me know so that you can stop by to hear my system. That's the only way I can convince you that I have plenty of power with the CJ into the 2.4s. And my room is not small; it has a high ceiling. | |
| Ayre V-Kxe and Thiel 2.4s At 150 wpc into 8 Ohms and 300 wpc into 4 Ohms the V5ke is going to power the 2.4s just fine. I use a 45 wpc CJ CAV50 with the 2.4s and have plenty of power. | |
| Cart Recommendations Don't know if this will help but I got into Lyra cartridgs over the past few years, now owning both an Argo i and a Helikon i. I have no desire to upgrade either of these as they continue to cound amazing. I hear their recent Delos is quite a good... | |
| best preamp for CJ MF2500a at 2000 to 2500 dollars I would go for the ET3; this is the newest and most improved CJ technology. This will be a great sounding system! | |
| What Integrated Amps have the sonics of Separates? CJ CAV50 | |
| Rogue Cronus Magnum or Conrad Johnson MV60SE...? I had a Cronus and now a CAV50 and in my opinion the CJ has the better sound. | |
| Useful Idiots Music is the closest thing we have to virtual reality and the playback equipment the closest we have to time machines. Home theatre is a close second. | |

| MMF-7? I have a MMF7 and use the Project Speedbox with it. Sounds marvelous. Highly recommended! | |
| Thiel 2.4 and Pass Labs Amps I have a sense that this model of Pass amp will be ideal for your Thiels. I have the 2.4s and use a CJ CAV50 to power them and I love the quality of the sonic stage and envelope I get with this combination. That set up should sound amazing, provid... | |
| 400-450Wpc Integrated to drive Thiel 2.3/2.4? I power my 2.4s with a 45 wpc CJ CAV50 and I love the sound. I can get it plenty loud when I need to. These are moderately sensitive with a measured 98 dB figure so don't worry too much about power. It's the quality of the power that really matter... |
