| Thiel Owners I found a 555 and a 545 already updated that I am looking at. I prefer to not hassle with shipping such a heavy amp for the mods. Do you feel that the 545 is enough, I checked my db meter and 75 to 85 with 95 db peaks is what I measured. I like th... | |
| Thiel Owners Tom, my listening room is nowhere as magnificent as the other room you are commenting on. My listening room is a family room off the kitchen and unfortunately has an open doorway a few feet in front of speaker and 8 ft to the side going to the liv... | |
| Thiel Owners I have been considering adding a dedicated amp to my Denon AVR for the front main Thiel CS 2 2 speakers. Tom had suggested an older ADCOM GFA 555 which I owned way back as a good match. My concerns are older parts and would like to avoid the extr... | |
| Thiel Owners btw: The Cheapaudioman just had a video that Emotiva was just bought out by The Klipsch Corp. Does this influence my decision about future quality, warranty and price???? Thank you in advance. | |
| Thiel Owners I am contemplating getting an older vintage Adcom 545 or 555 I or II for my Thiel CS 2 2's. I also am considering a new Emotiva Basx 2 or 3 for this task. New amp wil be connected to Denon AVR X4200 W to drive mains (Thiels). The price is simil... | |
| Thiel Owners I spoke to Rob and he said I should check for proper ohms of a small 66 ohm resistor on the crossover board. I have not done that yet, but have been checking other things in my system. I think all of the drivers may be OK. I have a few older Vanse... | |
| Thiel Owners I forgot to mention in my prior 2 posts about the high frequencies of my Thiel CS 2 2 speakers not sounding as smooth as they used to be. About a year ago I cleaned the entire dusty grille without taking the grille covers off, I used a powerful ce... | |
| Thiel Owners Tom, I agree with your assessment of the original Bryston, great and tight bottom end bass, but upper frequencies were hard sounding with the Thiels. I went to an Aragon 100W @ 8 ohms power amp, was a little hard sounding but switched to tube pr... | |
| Thiel Owners I was hoping to keep the Denon AVR and use the 2 channel amp to power the main front Thiels for 2 channel and in a 9 channel HT setup. If not much of a difference in sound, I will not add extra amp. Denon will provide over 150 w rms into 4 ohms p... | |
| Thiel Owners I would like to get back to a popular topic about which budget solid state amp will match up adequately with my Thiel CS 2 2 speakers which I bought back in the early 1990's. I play them every day in my HT setup which is powered by a 6 year old De... |
