At CES the Thiel home theatre setup used just Powerpoints (I think) and their sub, and it was awesome. This is a worthy direction if you can pull it off. As always, be careful of mating Thiels with inexpensive lean sounding solid state gear. If you do find it sounding a bit lean, use Cardas cabling, perhaps Shunyata power cords too, and hear the magic.
Thiel Powerplane and Powerpoint Speakers
In my continuing quest for the best bang for the buck bedroom surround system I have veered in the direction of the Thiel powerpoint and powerplane speakers. I am still looking at great bookshelf speakers such as Reverl M20s ect. but the Thiel have entered the race. What does anyone know of think of these coupled with a 100 wpc Rotel 1065. A good center might be the thiel sc series.
