Thiel Owners

unsound,
why is it that the 3.7 has a 10" woofer and a 10" passive and still lacks bass?  Seems almost like you would have to have designed the bass out of the speaker.  I am interested in the 3.7.

Thanks Robin and unsound, for clearing up that it is only the deepest octaves that are lacking.  In that regard I unconditionally like subwoofers anyway and will always have a couple.

I have shied away from Thiels in the past because there was always their reputation (deserved or not) that they were hot on top and because of the massive clean power needed to drive them.  But now that Jim is not around it seems that their is a renewed interest in the speaker, a reverence being paid t the genius.

I have never seen the 3.7 in person, but it looks great in my opinion, if not a bit stunning.  And I am thinking of trying it with a mega watt ice or ncore amp and tube pre.
