I see. Will you convert your basement into a listening space for the Thiels?
Follow Ups:
I did convert my basement into 4 separate rooms.
1. Kids rec room
2. Wife's Spa room
3. HT room
4. 2-channel only dedicated listening room that housed my Thiel CS 3.6 speakers as you can see in the attached photo.
Prior to driving my Thiel speakers with Krell Evolution I used to drive them with Audio Research tube gear. Namely the Audio Research D-250 tube power amp and the Audio Research Ref pre amp with excellent results and then some.
If a thing's worth doing, it's worth doing well

kootenay-
which Krell models are in the pic! What cabling?
I know they don't get a lot of talk but SimAudio's I-5 (or its newer incarnation) I-5.3 is pretty dang nice. More musical than revealing but it soundstages.
I listened to one for quite a while before pulling the trigger. It was between that and a Brinkmann (of Germany, not flashlights) and I just couldn't justify the price difference.
The I-5 was a couple notches below their 2 box P-5 pre and W-3 power amp but space was a consideration too.
Thanks! for sharing- Brianmch
is there a current integrated from Simaudio?

Beautiful pic- kootenay.
which cabling do you use?
More of a general purpose basement with a bedroom and sufficient space for audio. That's the plan anyway but not sure when.
