Thiel speakers paired with which amp ? Which model have you auditioned?

CS 7.2 with some monoblocks (that I cannot remember).
But the 8 lac Avalons were better sounding.

Hi Hyderabad guys,
This sunday, few of us are planning to have a round of auditions in vector and monitor audio showrooms.
Jalal from music people has been kind enough to provide us with a seperate demo room if it is not peak time in evening. He is also wiling to send the speakers for home audition (but Iam not sure if I should accept without some degree of inclination towards his speakers)
Apart from vested interests of helping me pick up good speakers , I would be more benefitted n meeting you.
Currently S-sachin, sajjad, anzy, musicbee are in. If you are around, please drop in.
I'd get the CDP. If someone can bring in a 100w/ch + amp, that wuld help to do a cross-showroom reference in electronics. I dont think musical fidelity jells well with the monitor audios personally also.
Time :
Vectors - 11 to 12.30
Audio people - 1.30 to 3
Bring in your CDs.

@Kittu :
About the NAD 2400 THX.
These sound more like the NAD amp rather than the Musichall (!!) when connected to the pre out. Sound is smoothed out and Bass is boosted. The Bass boost kind of helped the MA speakers in a way but more auditioning is required to find out if they jel well. They have seperate left and right volume controls (!!). First time I see them in a NAD.
The rotels I earlier connected to the Music hall were true to the source. (Meaning it sounded more like Musichall than Rotel)
So power amps are not entirely 'transparent'. Definetely not the NADs.
Have bought Rx6 a month back and did multiple auditions over last 6 months . Chose it over 684 due to better bass. Rx8 bass is probably better (auditioned mainly on rx8 as Mumbai representative did not have Rx6 for audition) but probably tonality is better in Rx6. Experience with Rx6 at home is good with music (till now) bass is good and very detailed as well.
FYI:
The synergy between the components could be related to the fact that
B&W, CLASSE, and ROTEL are owned by the same company. Also NAD and PSB are owned by the same parent company.
When I bought ARCAM products, Audioquest cables were recommended to pair with them. Later on I learned ARCAM marketed those cables in the UK. They were / are perfect for my ARCAM system. Some claim they have designed their products around AQ cables.
Simple and straight forward question.
If I liked the MA Silver RS8 after extended audition, does that entitle me to pick up a MA Gold signature GS20 WITHOUT audition for the same electronics?
see if you can get a home audition as well
