PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo
scar972 very good description of the D'agostino Classic amp thanks very much, it will serve everyone considering this amp.So with this amp it is wise to consider a good tube preamp like VAC or VTL. 
Dan D'Agostino Momentum amplifier- which preamp?
Might also want to check the Ypsilon PST-100 MKll.

With D'agostino Momentum i suggest VAC Signature MK lla or Master linestage or even Statement Line Stage if budget is not a problem for you.

TAD Reference loudspeakers-How good are they?
TAD Ref 1 is my favorite speaker by far but since i will never be able to afford them, i own what i consider to be the second best speaker after the big TAG : Thiel CS 3.7If you are fortunate enought to have the budget for a pair of TAD Ref 1 you ... 
Opinions on Thiel CS2?
I own the 1994 CS 1.5s and can tell you they are outstanding considering the small cabinet size.Never heard the CS 2s but i would suspect they are juste as good.A high current amp is required for most Thiels.

Well i guess this pair was not for me, second offer also not accepted by only 100€.I gave my best offer, i guess i will have to be more patient and wait for another pair to pop out.

If you don't like harsh speakers, very high WAF and good match with CJ gear : Thiel CS 2.4 or CS 2.7

Yes Charles VAC makes some of the finest tube linestage out there.The only brand that i can think of that could surpass the VACs is Robert Koda but out of reach for most of us.
